KSD, Inc., USD 108

To support the KSDS Assistance Dogs, Inc, the Washington County Community Foundation awarded the organization funding for utilities for the facility as well as veterinary care, including vaccines, UA and medications.

Funding was used towards the team placement of facility dog, Harley, with Tammy Gano, who is a special Education Para-Professional at USD #108, Washington, KS. Harley, a two year old golden/lab mix, was placed this fall and has been a great asset at school. His puppy raisers were Lisa and Clint Hamilton, of Cimarron, KS. "Harley came in for a little training, and he picked us. He decided this was his home and where he needs to be. There is not a day that goes by that he doesn't give you a high five or hand shake. HE is an excellent line leader. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us."- Tammy Gano
