Hey Everybody -- thanks for the welcome.

I am 42 years old and a C5/6 complete quadriplegic due to a car accident in
a wind storm.  In December of 2000, the top part of a tree broke off and
fell on our minivan while we were driving about 35 or 40 miles an hour on a
back road.  Wrong place at the wrong time.  My husband and I both broke our
necks and had surgery to get them fused.  There was more damage to my side
of the van, which left me a quadriplegic.  My husband fortunately did not
have any permanent damage.  I have movement of my arms, but no finger
movement.

We are in the midst of training our three-month old AKC yellow lab, which we
got when she was seven weeks old.  My husband is doing a great job with
her.  She was the youngest and most mellowest of the whole litter and should
be around 60 pounds or so full-grown.  Everyone that knows Labs says that
she is not a lab because she is so mellow.  She is potty trained and sleeps
in a kennel during the night.  Has anyone out there trained their dogs to do
things for them?  I still need to find a way to be able to give her treats.
Any suggestions?

Nice to Be on Board -- :-)
