Milton the guide-dog will be among the presenters at this year’s St. Joseph School Career Day on Oct. 16.
Milton is a guide dog for Dorothy Bodekor, who will help relate his perspective as a working animal to the students.
From his puppyhood at the “Guiding Eyes for the Blind” facility, to his time spent with his puppy-raisers, to his return to the Guiding Eyes facility for intense guide-training, Milton’s focus has been on becoming the eyes for a visually impaired master.
He is Bodekor’s third guide dog. She will explain to students how Milton serves as her guide as well as very close companion.
Other presenters at Career Day will include: a dentist, a cancer researcher, a commissioner of jurors, a photojournalist, a firefighter, and a professional soccer team coach/manager.
For more information or to schedule a visit to the school please contact Principal Karen Green at 343-6154.
