Today I had a very good day with my friend Sabrina and her service dog, Indy. We met up at Sabrina’s favorite restaurant, Chicken Salad Chick. She had me hold Indy outside on the patio while she went in to place our order. I had Felix on the ground on […]
When I start to feel like a bad person or get really anxious, one of my “tells” is that I say phrases like “I feel bad” or “I’m bad” in a certain tone of voice. I don’t even realize I’m saying them, they just come out on their own. I’ve […]
We like to call Alice our demon dog! She has quite the voice when she is playing or when she wants her breakfast! This is very uncharacteristic for a Japanese Chin, apparently, but it’s a characteristic of Alice that we find hilarious. Especially because she is so tiny! She is […]
Today has been a day of so many good things! This morning, I got a box from my friend Karin. She made Felix a prototype vest that has a Y-front harness on it. This is because Felix (and all Japanese Chin) can’t use harnesses or collars that put pressure on […]
Today I had a doctor’s appointment, then went to Starbucks where we met another service dog in the wild! We started out by visiting the doctor about my headaches. I decided to use my wheelchair to practice more heeling next to it for Felix’s big test in April. He did […]
In the last blog entry of the series, Felix had his own private photo shoot in his new PSDP vest! PSDP logo wear is coming soon! The vest is lavender with the PSDP logo on the back and SERVICE DOG on both sides. Felix is lying on a white blanket […]
Today was a long day for Felix! I’m getting him ready to be going all day long at the upcoming convention! We started out meeting Sabrina at Cherry Park. I got there about 20–30 minutes before Sabrina did, so it was good I brought my parasol. I was just hanging […]
Today’s blog entry with the backdrop we recently used is my favorite! I LOVE these pictures of the dogs floating in the clouds! We set up a white blanket on the floor for the dogs to be on, and used an orangey flash to give it that sun-kissed glow. Brad […]
Today’s pictures are of just Brad and me in our journey to find Brad the Shine Bot’s maker. In this first set of pictures, Brad and Veronica are off to see the Wizard, moving our arms like we’re singing that song and excited about our journey. In this next set […]
Today I had to pick up some things, so Felix and I went out to lunch to make it a training outing. We went to Firehouse Subs. This restaurant is not well laid out for wheelchair users, with only three tables really having enough room for a wheelchair and a […]
