Polly's trip to the mall

Polly's service dog vest came in the mail. Today we went to the hardware store and the Mall to walk since it is still raining. She was brilliant.  Chick Filet was hard to walk pass and a two year old stopped in front of her with an ice cream cone. She left the ice cream alone. We even went into an Art Gallery. I felt confident in the crowd because people gave me the space I needed with left side weakness and dizziness when I have to turn my head quickly. It was as if we were one.

I'm with Ren, I would have snatched that ice cream from the 2 year old! LOL

I have a dear heart sister who suffers cardiac events regularly- she has a service dog that has been a true lifeline for her.  Its amazing what these animals can do.

Give Polly a good pat or two from me for her excellent performance today.

best wishes,
Lulu

Alex,

How fantastic! I am so glad Polly is there to help you and restore your confidence in a crowd setting.  

Polly has great self control...passing up ice cream at eye level AND Chick fil-A is very good. Better than me, I would have gone and bought myself some of both.

Thanks for sharing this great news! Keep us updated on the adventures of Polly the service dog.
