I know I have mentioned this before, but I found more pics. So I thought I would share. These are old pics of a two monkey a customer was training for quadropalegics. Their names were Britney and Barney, he is at the very end of the pics. I would let her bring them into the bank so she could teach them to handle simple banking transactions and of course get use to other people. The normal training for one of these guys is a least 3 years. Here they are ~ Enjoy

As you can see Britney loved to hold on to the money!

Then it must have been some kind of monkey counterfit test?

Then of course she had so much money she needed a calculator and had to take a sucker break.

And then there was Barney. Well just look at him..... enough said. He only came in when we were closed. He would freak out if people moved to fast. The trainer thought he would take closer to 5 years before he would be ready.

Tonya,
Thanks for posting this. I showed my 6 year old and he loves the pictures. He seemed especially interested in the fact that the Monkey is wearing a diaper.

I have never heard of Monkeys being training to assist the Handicap. That is fascinating.
 
They are put in a diaper from pretty much day one. I am not sure at what age they are taken from thier mother.
Yea, Britney (the smaller one) would pick up anything you dropped. She knew how to open the fridge, use the microwave, turn lights on and off, the trainers cell would ring she would flip the phone open and put it to her ear. It was amazing! She would even take them thru the drive thru and they would work the tubes.
 
Oh yeah its a regular diaper with a small slit for the tail. Glad the kids are enjoying!
 
Bump for Sparkies little girl to see
 
OMG girl, this is awesome!:applause: Wow, I will show her tomorrow.. I just put little girl to bed. The wife just told me get off that dang detail forum and come to bed. LOL!!!
Thanks for the bump...
