Thanksgiving

1. December 2008 by admin.

Well there are lots of things to be thankful for this year.  One of my biggest things to be grateful for is that JJ doesnt have to retire.  He has been such a blessing in my life, I cant imagine him not being a part of it.  For Thanksgiving we went to my brothers house to celebrate with the other 20 people invited.  My brother didnt want JJ to come at first.  He made comments such as he didnt have a place for JJ to run or didnt want dog hair all over his house.  That JJ had to be in working mode which he hasnt been good at.  We I told him if JJ didnt come then the family didnt come.   Well we all went.  Everyone else was extremely happy that he came as he is part of the family and not only cause he is my service dog, but cause of who he is.   JJ did great and loved being there.  And of course loved the turkey too ;).   JJ did get some down time outside to run around and then it started to rain.  But JJ did great, did his tasks like he was suppose too.  Everyone else was great and only asked to pet him and left him alone after that.   It gave me hope and glad that my extended family and friends are more supportive than my immediate family.
