Tuesday Triumphs! Today, we celebrate first responders and veterans training side by side - a service dog providing a medical lifeline to a veteran who has served his country, and a therapy dog aiding a first responder in their vital work. Let’s come together and spread some light and joy.

A huge shoutout to the incredible team from #LockheedMartin who volunteered with us today! The team rolled up their sleeves to help harvest the rest of our garden and add soil in our relay field. Setting the stage for a thriving garden next season and a green, safe space for our clients to enjoy.

Training service dog Jenny. This photo is proof that perseverance & consistency pay off! Fiddler the cat has always wanted to be friends with her, but Jenny’s style of play has been pounce, squash and chase. For the last 8 months we have worked on leash to teach her to be more gentle with my 3 cats.

For our loved ones this holiday season, let’s not forget our furry family members. It’s tempting to share our Thanksgiving meal, but for their health, instead treat your dog to extra cuddles or their favorite dog treat instead.
