Maui resident Karen O'Neill got help from her dog-in-training Chipper yesterday to open a door at Kaahumanu Center in Kahului. O'Neill is going through two weeks of intensive training to acquaint her with her new dog, provided by the nonprofit Hawaii Canines for Independence. Assistance dogs such as Chipper learn about 90 commands, including signs that tell them when to bark. The dogs begin receiving training when they are about 14 weeks old and are ready for service when they are about a year and a half old.
