Amber (Golden Retriever) | ID Capes, Golden Retriever

Amber relaxing in her ID Cape with patches

This is Jim Miller’s 2½ year old Golden Retreiver, Amber wearing her Service Dog vest and patches. Jim describes her as “very intelligent, motivated, curious, helpful, playful, a quick learner, and of course pretty.” She sounds like the perfect companion!

Amber is a service animal trained specifically for persons with seizure disorders. A seizure alert dog notifies someone when a seizure is pending, sometimes as far as 30 minutes in advance. That person can get to a safer place, sit down, notify a bystander, and prepare for an oncoming attack. The dog can either standby or go get help if necessary.
