Aldo will be helping the four-year-old Izabelka who is fighting a very rare genetic disease. She will be able to learn new skills; canistherapy and walks with the dog will help her develop her physical abilities, vocabulary and social interaction. The total costs of purchasing, bringing up and training, certification and subsequent support of the family by the trainer come up to nearly CZK 270,000; however, the non-profit organisation Pestrá provides dogs to its clients entirely free of charge. Your contributions will help Pestrá keep on going and improve the quality of life of its clients.

The story was nominated by Katka Vokřínková, who along with her husband had trained Aldo for two years.
