Logan’s Olympic torch raises funds for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People

My Hearing Dog is the light of my life. He has brought me so many friends and given me security, companionship, comfort, always a listening ear, a friendly happy face, and he’s just simply my best friend.

Reading about Logan McKerrow and his generosity brought a tear to my eye. He decided to make an Olympic torch and this has been auctioned on Ebay to help raise funds for Hearing Dogs for Deaf People who train dogs to help deaf people in the UK. Today the bidding has reached an amazing £153,100! That’s $237,700! …… and there are 6 hours left to go!

Assistance Dogs will be welcome at all Olympic Games venues. The information on the ADUK website will help you to ensure you and your assistance dog enjoy your visit to the Olympics.

Assistance dog partner Wendy Morrell compiled much of this information. Wendy has been working with LOCOG since 2007 to ensure that the needs of assistance dog owners are met at all 2012 Olympic venues.

Assistance Dogs (UK) has been assured by the London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games that there will be an assistance dog relief area at every Olympic venue.
