NAPA COUNTY, Calif. (KTVU) Napa High School has a new face on campus this year.
With whiskers, big floppy ears and four paws, Captain isnt who you would normally expect to find walking down the schools hallways.
The 5-month-old yellow lab puppy, attends classes, rides the bus and even goes to tennis practice.
While many of his classmates have their sights set on college Captain has a different future ahead when hes done with school.
Captain, with the help of 15-year-old Camille Jacobson, is in training to become a service dog for a Veteran in need.
Hes part of the Napa's Canine Guardians Assistance Dogs program.
Camille said she knew she wanted to help train a service dog after she sat next to one on a plane. She says it was fate when her mom got an email from her 4H leader that there were puppies that needed to be socialized.
Camille and Captain were quick to bond. We are best friends. I don't go anywhere without him. more at link: http://www.ktvu.com/news/north-bay-news/28288252-story
