Yesterday, Thursday 9th January, a hearing dog came to visit us, called Jessie. Before she arrived we watched a video about the dogs from a puppy to grown up, through puppy school. She came with Darcie and Fiona, to start with she came to each of us and we were allowed to stroke her. Fiona is Jessie's trainer 'Jessie tells Fiona about hearing' Darcie gave us lots of information about hearing dogs and about Jessie and her helping people. Jessie wore a special jacket that said Learning and Hearing Dog. She came to worship with us. She was nice and quiet. Jessie lies down when a fire alarm goes off to tell her owner that it has gone off. If the door rings Jessie goes to her owner and nudges her leg and then goes back to the front door!
