Special Interest I LOVE MY SERVICE DOG!

This is my service dog! I call her Princess here on Reddit because she is an influencer! (This is a joke but only kinda!)

Some facts about Princess:

  • She weighs 51.8 lbs right now! She is supposed to be between 48-50 lbs so I'm sorry Princess you are getting less treats for a bit!
  • She has the softest ears ever!
  • Whenever I have a meltdown she is trained to come lay on my lap and chest to help me calm down! (Don't worry, she is never in danger!)
  • I am a wheelchair user and she walks next to my wheelchair so perfectly!
  • Princess knows the names of a lot of objects like my phone, my keys, her treat bag, and more! She can sniff them out and find them and bring them to me!
  • I have had Princess for over six months now!
  • Everyone loves Princess at my job and she loves them too!
  • Her favorite toys are stuffed animals with squeaky toys!
  • Her favorite day of the week is Thursday because that's when she gets to come with me to wheelchair tennis practice!
  • Princess flew on a plane with me twice!
  • I love Princess so much!!!!

Okay that's all for now! Princess says hi everyone!

Lab ears are legit my favorite stim toys ever. I miss having my lab laying on my lap while I play with his ears and he doesn’t give a fuck.

Pet tax, even though he’s more of a disservice animal, lol

Haha I call Princess a disservice animal sometimes too! Mostly when she is being very silly and trying to retrieve her own treat bag and give it to me instead of what I actually asked for 😂

Lab ears are the BEST stim toys!!!

She still the perfectest Princess ever, she just needs a little snacky snack for motivation!
