Blind Man Reunited With Missing Labrador Guide Dog Thanks To Facebook!

Image
In Canada, a blind man has reunited with his missing Labrador guide dog thanks to Facebook.
Blake Hardin recently moved to Vancouver from Alabama. The visually-impaired man had not yet gotten new tags with updated contact information for his 10-year-old Labrador, Beethoven.
On Sunday October 18, the Labrador Retriever wandered off. Hardin said he walked around the neighborhood with his cane, calling out to Beethoven for hours, but couldn’t find his dog. The dog was not wearing his guide dog vest and he was worried what would happen to him.
Someone later found the lost Labrador on a street less than a mile away and took him into their home.
The next day, a neighbor recognized the Labrador in a post on The Columbian’s Facebook page.
Cherry Martin, the director of School of Piano Technology for the Blind where Hardin goes to, drove the blind man to the residence less than a mile away to take Beethoven home.

Labrador Names: Hundreds of Great Ideas to Help You Name Your Dog

Human Names For Labradors It is very popular to give pets so-called human names. All of our family dogs have human names, and always have done. I don’t just extend this rule to the canine members of the house, every other animal we live with also has a human name. Even down to the guineapigs and fish!
