Giving Back Recaps

Pickles came to see us at the ACVO free eye check event. He was born with a cleft lip and neurological damage to one side of his face. His dad, a paramedic, wanted Dr Chavkin’s reassurance that his eyesight isn’t affected. Pickles has an incredible sense of smell. His family adopted him to be a family dog but noticed his skill early on. At only 6 months old, Pickles is training to be part of the elite FEMA disaster cadaver search dog team. He’ll help bring calm to terrible situations and provide closure for families who lose loved ones. If selected, he’ll be 1 of 100 FEMA search dogs in the US (and only 1 of 2 in Colorado!).
