Blair has another passion - he loves animals and hopes one day to be a K-9 police officer. He was thrilled to have the opportunity recently to learn more about his chosen career when he spent a day with the New Jersey State Police K-9 Unit at its academy. He observed the extensive training process that officers and their canine partners must undergo, and also assisted with basic walking drills.

Therapy is helping Blair cope with issues arising from the many separations and losses he has experienced. He yearns to have a permanent home with a patient, loving, committed family that would provide the support and reassurance he needs. Blair is eligible for financial subsidy.
