Forrest & Tom Simons

This handsome black Labrador Retriever found himself with a rescue group in Oregon when his former owner’s living situation changed abruptly. When the rescue saw his working dog potential, they contacted SDF to begin the evaluation process. After his testing videos were approved by SDF’s training team, Forrest was transported to Southern California by one of SDF’s volunteer pilots who shared that he jumped right in the plane as if it were just a funny-looking car! Forrest is quite a large dog and trainers were impressed with how gracefully he moved across the rubble pile during his formal evaluation at our campus, which he passed beautifully.
