When we met Wayland, we knew he was the perfect person for Casper
to share her life with. The partnership shared by Casper and
Wayland is an inspiration. They continue to overcome challenges and
"open doors" to educate and enrich others around them.-Sharon and
Craig Latimer, Casper's puppy raisersWayland and his talented dog,
Casper, were favorite visitors to my classroom where they listened
patiently to the children ages 6 to 9 years old, read their stories
out loud. The children used to count the days until the pair would
come, as they took pride in selecting special stories for Casper's
enjoyment. Even the most timid readers were eager to share their
reading prowess with Wayland and his gentle dog. Always accepting,
always interested, Casper and Wayland became a beloved addition to
the children's lives. -Janice Mattina, Director and Teacher at
Center Montessori School, Bradenton, FloridaCasper's story was
written not only for enjoyment and pleasure but also for children
to understand and appreciate the life of a service dog. This story
depicts a positive message, illustrating Casper's happy-go-lucky
lifestyle with actual photographs, while maintaining a strong sense
of importance and duty. To this day, Casper enjoys an active life
at her home with the author, Wayland Massey, in Bradenton, Florida.
