Hi Everyone,
Today is my service dog Merlin's birthday. He is 2 years old and no longer a puppy. But he still has a lot of puppy in him. We became a team on October 5, 2007 and it has been a very good first year together. Since the time I became a paraplegic, being independant was always my goal. When Merlin came into my life, I feel that I am now fully independant and I am able to exist among the able world. Merlin does so many things for me, he opens doors, carries my bags and groceries, pick up things, turn on and off the lights, he will even grab something out of the fridge for me. He will pull my wheelchair when I get tired. Merlin is very well trained. I guess that you get the picture. Merlin is my friend, and my companion.
Thanks for sharing
Akiji
