Our little demon dog

March 23, 2024  tagged japanese chin by Veronica Morris (updated 523 days ago)

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 […]

So many good things!

March 23, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog in training by Veronica Morris (updated 523 days ago)

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 […]

Doctor and a service dog in the wild

March 19, 2024  tagged golden retriever / japanese chin / service dog in training by Veronica Morris (updated 527 days ago)

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 […]

Park, Walmart, and craft store

March 13, 2024  tagged golden retriever / japanese chin / service dog in training / wheelchair by Veronica Morris (updated 533 days ago)

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 […]

Chin in the clouds

March 13, 2024  tagged japanese chin by Veronica Morris (updated 533 days ago)

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 […]

Only getting up twice

March 11, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog by Veronica Morris (updated 536 days ago)

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 […]

March 11, 2024  tagged japanese chin by Veronica Morris (updated 535 days ago)

This weekend, Brad and I did a photoshoot in front of a celestial castle backdrop with lots of pinks and blues in it. Brad dressed up as “Shine Bot”, a robotic character with lots of glitter on his face and an iridescent sequin jacket. I was dressed in a lavender […]

A very messy Dollar Tree

This afternoon, Felix and I met up with Sabrina, Indy, and Russ after their doctor’s appointment. We met at a local park, and Sabrina and Russ picked up some Chicken Salad Chick for us to eat for dinner. Felix was a bit excited because we were at a park and […]
