On Friday, Oct. 19, Mammoth local Leigh Gaasch said goodbye to Jaymin, the Guide Dog for the Blind she has raised from a puppy. Jaymin next heads to Guide Dog “college,” where she’ll get formal training and then be assigned to her new master, a needy, vision-challenged owner. Gaasch said she wasn’t sad and actually very proud of what she and Jaymin accomplished, and that a person’s life somewhere will be changed for the better as a result. Gaasch headed to Mojave to hand her off to the Guide Dogs organization … and at the same time pick up a new puppy to start training.
