Endal shows his ability
in London fundraiser
 |
| Allen and Endal take their turn raising funds for Canine Partners - this time at Canary Wharf in London. |
RECENTLY in the very heart of the British financial institutions, Canary Wharf in London, Canine Partner Endal took part not only in a street collection to raise funds for Canine Partners but also gave a demonstration of his amazing ability to operate a cashpoint machine in the presence of the cream of the banking fraternity.
Endal is still the only dog in the world to be able to put the card into the machine and then take out the money, card and receipt.
"Even after10 years" says Allen "it is breathtaking to see Endal problem solve his way around the different types of machines we meet on our travels! As is the norm, Mr Reliable didn't let me down and went faultlessly through the whole sequence quite a few times for the gathered crowd and photographers."

What is more remarkable is that Endal was not taught or trained to do this and, as has been reported in the national media, he has now learned to use the chip and pin machines as well - quite an addition to an already illustrious CV.
"There really are no limits to which we can not aspire to in this partnership" said a proud Allen. "I never know from one day to the next what Endal will do next to enable me to experience such a quality of life." Allen confided that the worried look on Endal's face in the photo was because to have the photo taken he had put down the bag containing Endal's treats, and another dog came along ... once a lab, always a lab ... priceless!
