The bravest dog I know—my retired guide dog who has faced big city traffic without a hint of fear —has officially met his match this morning: The Hallway Vacuum. 😂🤷
We went for our usual walk this morning, and someone was vacuuming the hallway just outside of our apartment door. He gave me a heavy sigh and planted his little feet in protest as if we were walking into a dragon's den.
After this adventure, he has now settled for a nap.

Moving story and tribute to a great Lab, Roselle, in my Guide Dogs NSW/ACT Pupdate newsletter. I know I'm biased, but Labradors are the best dogs! ❤️ #dogs #DogsOfMastodon #labrador #guidedog
I am looking to talk to anyone who has a #guideDog from leader dogs. I have a friend who is both visually and hearing impaired, and she says they have a program for hearing impaired people but she couldn't find any information on their website. She is thinking of applying, but she would like more information first.
It was Phoenix's 7th birthday on Wednesday but we didn't get to work together that day so nothing would do but she gets to wear her favorite Birthday hat when we go to the hospital for my infusion this morning! Happy birthday! My snuggly, bossy, opinionated, and devoted copilot! #ServiceDog #GuideDog #HearingDog #DogsOfMastodon
