We are so excited to introduce Prancer IV, the newest puppy with Collar Scholars at CSU! Prancer is a five month old male yellow lab-golden cross, born to Brewster and Agent.

With matriculation tomorrow for our May pups, we are excited to celebrate their accomplishments and look forward to their future. Please enjoy some words about puppy Wren, written by his raiser’s Kali and Peter.

With matriculation coming up, we are very happy and excited to share all the fun and accomplishments from our favorite little man, Wren! When we first picked up Wren in May 2025, wecould tell that he was going to be a silly little guy. As a learning experience for both me and Kali, her first male dog and my first official pup, he has been the most amazing guy to learn and grow with

There has been so many new learning opportunities for him. From moving across state lines, sitting in class for hours, coming to work with me in a new environment that he has never been in. He has tackled all these challenges with a drooly smile on his face. He never hesitates to look up at you during training moments, with slobber dripping from his jowels, letting you know he is eager and ready to learn.

Outside of his learning opportunities, he is the most cuddly man ever. He will plop on you with all of his weight and just lay there as if you are the most comfortable dog bed ever. The love and support that he brings is present with everything that he does, and whomever his person is will feel the same love, support, and gratitude that Kali and I have felt. Whether as future service dog or best friend, these relationships have been present since the beginning.

Wren, as you go off into the world of professional training and finding your forever person, you are such a sweet, thoughtful, and focused little guy. You will have no trouble making any friends at all, and you are going to be the most fun loving and enjoyable little puppy Learning, meeting new people, and going on adventures is the perfect way for people to get to know the real Wren. We are so excited to see what you do next, and are cheering you on every step of the way.

With matriculation approaching for our May pups, we are excited to celebrate their accomplishments and look forward to their future. Please enjoy some words about puppy Aimee, written by her raiser Sami.

Raising Aimee has truly been the journey of a lifetime. I could not have asked for a better dog. Aims is so sweet, cuddly, patient, goofy, and genuinely the sweetest soul. She has taught me so much, not only about raising and training a service dog, but also about myself. Aimee has made me a more patient and selfless person, and she’s reminded me that it’s okay to slow down sometimes.

Aims is going to go so far, and I cannot wait to see everything she accomplishes. I am beyond proud of her. She has always tried her absolute best and has been such a steady, reliable dog. From the day I picked her up from prison, she wanted nothing more than to work and make everyone around her happy. I cannot imagine the impact she is going to make in someone’s life, knowing how much of an impact she has made in mine.

To my sweet Aimee bean, I love you so much and I am endlessly proud of you. Watching you grow and learn has been one of the best experiences of my life. From your morning snuggles, to your zoomies, to your little grunts when you are tired, I am going to miss you more than words can explain. You are going to change so many lives, and I cannot wait to see what path you choose in professional training. I love you so much, bean. I will see you again soon 🤍
