Each photograph is accompanied by a caption that imparts wisdom, character or an expression that will make you think. It is a suitable gift for Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries and Valentines Day.
This gorgeous book is full of 80 adorable colour/ black and white photos of puppies and dogs together with captions. It is a must for anyone who needs a little extra cuteness in their life! These incredible dogs aptly learn how to become an extra pair of hands - from loading a washing machine, opening and closing doors, pressing the pedestrian button at lights - to improving communication, empathy and motor skills of a child diagnosed with autism. The physical support these trained dogs provide lasts their 8-10 year working life. This is the perfect gift for Christmas, birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine's Day, as well as being timeless.

Assistance Dogs Australia is a national charity that trains Labrador and Golden Retriever puppies through a two-year internationally accredited programme. Each pup is taught up to 50 specialized commands that support and help provide increased mobility, freedom and independence for their owner children and adults who live with disability. These incredible dogs learn to become an extra pair of hands, and among other tasks are taught to load a washing machine, open and close doors, and press the pedestrian button at traffic lights. Assistance Dogs make a dramatic difference to lives and have been known to help improve the communication, empathy and motor skills of a child diagnosed with autism. The physical support these trained dogs provide lasts for their 8-10 year working life. Aside from their working role, the unconditional love and companionship they provide helps to relieve their owners of social isolation and gives them a better quality of life.
