Puppy Raiser of the Year in Jacksonville Florida

Taunnie Novak received the award of Puppy Raiser of the Year 2006 from Area Coordinator Thresa Shaver this week in a ceremony in Jacksonville.

Taunnie raises Guide Dog Puppies for Southeastern Guide Dogs -- Palmetto Florida.

Taunnie is currently raising "Walker" (a golden and Labrador mix). Walker is nearly ready to be returned to the School in Palmetto for his professional training.

This is Taunnie's fourth guide dog puppy she has raised. " It's always difficult to return your assigned puppy to the school but without puppy raisers like us there would be no guide dogs for the seeing impaired."

Taunnie and her husband Charlie reside here in Treasure Beach.
