We will always be so grateful to David for the amazing way he and Avril raised Jet. Jet became our guide dog in 2019 after being puppy walked by David and Avril. When meeting them it was so lovely to see the love David had for Jet and this is also evident in what a caring, kind dog he is. Thank you so much David for all you did to raise Jet and all the other guide dogs. This kindness you did really does transform blind peoples lives and with this your legacy will live on. Thank you love Tim & Emma & Jet of course
