I have known of the Service Dog Project for many years and had the honor of attending multiple Dog Fest, even bring in a photo in the book! Sizzle and Bentley have come to my last job in Revere where an excerpt was mentioned and coming to my current job in Beverly. We even went to Crazy Acres. I have met all the dog and human partners in person.
Carlene is a force to be reckoned with. Her determination for others to succeed are incredible. Her heart is bigger than anyone I have ever met in my life. She is truly and inspiration to other and especially young females who want to make their own mark on the world.
