Lady Ellen is Generous was donated to the PAD program as a possible breeding prospect. As you know, about 80% of our service dogs are donated, while the rest are donated or bred for the program. Lady had a complication during delivery, as the first puppy was breach, and our awesome staff and and a very experienced volunteer banded together to be there to support her. She was taken to the emergency vet, where she had a caesarean. Nine beautiful puppies were delivered safely, and Lady Ellen made a full recovery and is a most excellent mama. Some of the pups will be placed into fosters with trainers, and others will be sold to extremely well-vetted homes, with the proceeds going to Patriot Assistance Dogs.
