DURING FISCAL YEAR 2019, GALLANT HEARTS GUIDE DOG CENTER PLACED FOUR (4) GUIDE DOG TEAMS. ALTHOUGH THIS IS A LOWER NUMBER OF GUIDE DOG PLACEMENTS THAN USUAL, IT WAS INFLUENCED BY THE HEALTH ISSUES OF SOME DOGS. ONE DOG HAD BEEN TRAINED AND READY FOR PLACEMENT WHEN IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT SHE HAD OSTEOSARCOMA (BONE CANCER).ANOTHER FACTOR THAT INFLUENCED THE NUMBER OF DOGS PLACED IS THE PREPARATION FOR INTERNATIONAL GUIDE DOG FEDERATION CERTIFICATION. AT LEAST TWO WEEKS OF TRAINING TIME WAS SPENT WITH A REPRESENTATIVE OF ANOTHER GUIDE DOG SCHOOL WHO VISITED GALLANT HEARTS FOR A WEEK, AND THE GALLANT HEARTS TRAINER VISITED ANOTHER GUIDE DOG SCHOOL FOR A WEEK. THE INTERNATIONAL GUIDE DOG FEDERATION STANDARDS WERE INCORPORATED INTO A MANUAL OF POLICIES AND PROCEDURES THAT WILL GOVERN GALLANT HEARTS GUIDE DOG CENTER. PROGRESS TOWARD FULL MEMBERSHIP IN THE INTERNATIONAL GUIDE DOG FEDERATION WAS MADE DURING THIS YEAR.BIDS ON BUILDING A WHELPING KENNEL WERE RECEIVED AND A CONTRACTOR WAS CHOSEN. THE WHELPING KENNEL WILL BE BUILT DURING 2020.IN 2019, MUCH PROGRESS WAS MADE IN ORGANIZING OFFICE RECORDS THANKS TO THE TIRELESS EFFORTS OF GALLANT HEARTS ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT.
