This is what happens when everyone goes home and I’ve a lovely wet slide to play on 🤣

What a very busy time I’ve been having! I’ve loved getting to know my new friends in the Ducklings, they were even asking when I was coming back again! Of course I love all my old friends too. I’ve been getting used to my new timetable and learning how to behave for all my new Team Raia handlers!

It was our BIG graduation day today 🎉 Me and my 6 siblings were so proud to celebrate all the hard work of training over the last months 🐾 I’m now an official Assistance Dog 👏🏻 @assistancedogsni We had Doggie School every Friday and lots of practice up the corridors and in the classrooms. Gary, our amazing trainer, deserves a big medal for his patience with us and our humans too! I’m super excited to celebrate my graduation in school with all my chums very soon. I even got an extra special certificate for learning how to actually walk and not just sit looking at my Mummy 🤣 when I was a little tiny puppy. I was very happy to see my @wingitbelfast friends Ellie and Ethan at my graduation too 💜 What a special day 🎉 How do you think we should celebrate in school?

This week I was so happy to welcome everyone back to school, my tail was wagging a lot 🎉 I think they were happy to see me too, there were a lot of smiles 💜 One of my chums thanked me for my visit and told me that the cuddle had made them feel relaxed 🥰 I love my job!

I’ve been in school the last couple of weeks getting ready for the new school year 🎉. I was so excited to go on a big trip out for the staff wellbeing day - can anyone spot me in the group photo? 💜 The other big excitement this week was my last Doggie School class with my bro and sisters - watch this space for our BIG graduation party coming up very soon! 🎉

This was my very first visit to @wingitbelfast. They’re a pretty cool bunch! Just for the record I did NOT eat any of the chicken 😂 it was only my chums who had that very special privilege. I will tell you that it smelt pretty good so is worth checking out! Thanks @wingitbelfast for everything you’ve done for me 💜 The link is in my bio to see the full episode including my cousin Peanut 🐾 #AssistanceDogsNI #assistancedog #schoolassistancedog

This was only my first week in school! My friends were amazing in this week’s episode 💜

I loved my visit to Summer Scheme to see my buddies 💕 Looking forward to seeing everyone again in a few weeks time!

Hello everyone - it’s Raia’s Mummy/Trainer/Paw-parent here and I’ve taken over her account to wish her a very Happy 1st Birthday 🎉🐾 Dear Raia From the moment you came into our lives at just 4 months old, I knew you were something special. Watching you grow into the incredible assistance dog you are today has been an absolute joy. At school, you’re focused, calm, and always ready to support—but outside of work, you’re the most loving, playful, and cuddly pup I could ever ask for. 🐶💕 You brighten every morning with your snuggles, bring endless laughs with your toy obsession, and are the best company on walks. Thank you for being my sidekick, my student, my shadow, and my wee chum 💜 I can’t wait to see what amazing things you achieve over the next 12 months. PS Normal service will resume again!
