((Wait, as in, looking at my Shadow Realm rp? XD Anyway, yeah. It felt as if the ones that I spent the least amount of time on ended up being the lucky ones that survived the longest. ^.^))

(I'm good, clover. ^^ How about you?) Matthew smiled and went to put Sheba back into her kennel. "Alright, then, lets go. I'll hold the door open for you." ~* "Thanks," Destiny said, smiling. "I really want to learn more about everything they do to keep this place running, but right now it's just the basics for me." Andrew nodded. "Well that makes sense," he muttered, looking up at her with a smile. "I wasn't expecting the staff to be so friendly."

(School is taking so much time. >.< )
Matthew quickly fell into step beside the girl, walking on the side Molly was not. "Molly is trained to roads, pathways, even store aisle," he explained to the girl. "So long as the way if clear, she'll walk beside you. If there is anything blocking your way, or if you're at a stop light, she won't move until the way is clear. I would still advise traveling with someone the first few times to get use to having her around, but after a while, you'll be fine."
(Ib and Gary! It's so cute! XD) "What were you expecting?" Destiny asked with a small laugh. She took no offense to his words. To be honest, she didn't know what to expect from the staff either when she first volunteered to help around here.

(Haha Ib and Garry are amazing <3) (Sorry i haven't been active- school!)
"I don't know. I guess I wasn't really expecting all of you to be so helpful. Like yeah, I just arrived, but it seems like you actually care and aren't just here for the money," Andrew replied, looking up at her,

"Yeah, she is. They all are," Matthew agreed with a hint of pride. He and Kat, as well as some other volunteers, trained most of the dogs from pups, so it felt nice to see them helping out their new owners. As the pair stopped however, he turned his attention to the ground in front of them. "Oh, sorry, I forgot I moved some training props out here. Take three steps to the right and you'll clear it." ( Winona Gem has the cute chibis. X3 ) (They're so cute, in an older brother/younger sister kind of way.) Destiny laughed slightly. "No, it's certainly not for the money," she said. "The center only takes in enough money for the upkeep of the dogs and property. There's hardly any profit, and if there is some, it goes to the volunteers as an extra little thank you."

Emily couldn't help but smile, hearing the obvious pride in Mathews voice. They must put a lot of work into training the service dogs, so it must be nice to see all their hard work pay off. She took three steps to the right, Molly following beside her, shaking her fur slightly as most dogs do. "So when does this six-week course start? Do we work in a group with others or...?" Her voice trailed off, curious. She was wondering where Kat was, she seemed to be pretty busy, after all. Perhaps they weren't going straight back to the offices, instead heading to where she was? She didn't mind any way, she was just eager.

((Ah, I can't see the chibis on mobile. Dx
Anyway, sorry for not being on, guys. On Thursday, my mother went into labor. The baby was six weeks early and as such, they've been staying at a hospital an hour away. So I didn't home until after midnight Thursday evening. Then I woke up early Friday to do several things with my boyfriend, homework, feed my menagerie of animals, and then go visit my parents and new baby sibling. Then, my boyfriend left his wallet in the bathroom when we were on our way back and someone stole it. Dx So then we had to deal with THAT so I AGAIN didn't get home until late. And then my boyfriend's family is visiting from down south so they could pick apples this weekend. Today has been a long day. My elderly dog had an accident this morning, then we went out to breakfast with my boyfriend's family and the stupid restaurant DIDN'T MAKE MY BREAKFAST, and then I later broke down crying and really, I've just been a stressed out mess. Not really sure when I'll have time to come back, but now I think I might be sick again with the flu. Dx So I'm off to bed. P.S. Living alone is scary. I'm all alone in the middle of nowhere until, at the soonest, Thursday. Possibly even later.))

((You sound just like my parents with the Emergen-C stuff. I hate it so much, so typically my dad puts it in a really small glass so I can just take a shot of it. Might suck it up and do it, however...
Anyway, I'm guessing Matthew and Emily are needing Kat now? I shall rp her.))
Kat had just finished up getting the information she needed from Skylar. She now headed back through the kennel building, Bandit trotting along beside her, on her way out to the office building. She wasn't entirely paying attention to where she was going, but she figured people would expect that and step out of her way.

(Aw im sorry Blaze! I hope that you feel batter soon and everything will work itself out.)
Andrew nodded. "Ah well I'm still glad the voulenteers aren't just here for the money," he muttered, looking forward toward the building that was now getting closer.

((Thanks, Gem. From the looks of it, they're wanting to keep him there until his original due date. Which is six weeks from now, even though he's doing great.))

((Ooh. Good idea. I think the stress of everything and being alone made me sick last night, actually... An annoying precaution! Dx For me.))
Kat paused to look up, smiling when she saw Emily. "Oh, hello. I see you found a dog already. That's great!" She looked down at the dog. "Molly, right?"

(Bleh I can see why! Thats so long for him to be in the hospital- okay there is longer periods of time, but still. How many times have you gotten to see him?) "Yeah, she's really sweet, and spunky!" She said, clearly excited. "Its all thanks to Mathew, who helped me," She added a little shyly. The girl, although more comfortable now,was still a little timid around all these new people.

((Yeah, but he's in an incubator so we can't hold him and touch him too much to "overstimulate" him. My mother finally pushed enough that now they can hold him and I can, if I want to. The day he was born they wouldn't let my mom hold him, though. We weren't even allowed to talk around him. -.- But today's nurse was great.))
Kat laughed. "Well, great! We just need to do some final paperwork and then you and Molly can start your official training."

Matthew chuckled at Emily's praise. "You did most of the work," he said. "Anyway, I'm sure you two can handle things, so, Kat, is there anyone else who needs assistance? Or are we good to start training again?"
Destiny nodded. "Yeah, we don't get paid often, but then again, we volunteered knowing we wouldn't get paid. So there's no disappointment there." She gave a small laugh. Once they got closer to the building, she jogged forward to open the door for Andrew.

((Oh goodness, I'm sorry. >.< I have been busy!))
"Oh, the training is basically just teaching Molly how to work with you. Kind of teacher her specific tasks, get her used to working with you and your own cues, stuff like that." Kat explained and then looked back at Matthew. "Hmm... Well, there's another person running around here somewhere. Andrew. Destiny is showing him around but if you want, you could get him set up with a dog or go back to training. Whatever you want." She said with a smile.

((Uh... busy, to say the least. My parents will probably be returning home soon, though, so that's an upside! But the house is a mess, so my mother was going to ask my grandmother to come help me clean it up a bit so that I could actually relax, but my grandma made a big deal about it so my mother told her to forget it. So instead, my mom's best friend and her daughter, who happens to be MY best friend, are coming over to help me clean up in about fifty minutes! And she's picking up dinner for me and my boyfriend and I offered to pay her and she said no. >.< I'm very grateful for them and how un-stressful they are.))
"Well, we'll probably wait until tomorrow to get started with your training." Kat explained as she started to write something down on her clipboard. Who knew what she was writing -- Kat was always all over the place with her work. "It'll give you and Molly a chance to kind of... get to know each other, I guess." She explained. "But, if you really want, we have some fenced in areas that you could take her to and play with her a bit."

(sorry I haven't been on!)
Andrew smiled up at her as he neared the building, passing through the door she held open for him. "Thank you," he muttered, noddign to her.

((It's alright, Gem! ^.^
Yeah. XD The house looks great now so I can FINALLY relax... they really are the best.))
Kat laughed. "Oh, please don't apologize. I like a lot of questions. It means you want to be prepared." She replied with a smile.
