Wow - so much has happened in my life since I adopted Benji. He's the most amazing dog I've ever known. He also started alerting to migraines not long after I posted here. I started a new med that gives me nightmares and Benji wakes me up. He sniffs me, decides where the inflammation is the worst, and snuggles against the spot like a heating pad. I worked and worked with him in obedience and did an agility class for fun (where we learned that he is incredibly agile and I am not!) and he passed his CGC with flying colors. I worked on training to meet SD guidelines and he's a rockstar. He can navigate revolving doors, rapid transit, escalators, and just about anything we encounter. I recently had to stop working because of my health, but before that, Benji came to work with me every day using a shared ride service for the disabled. We met a lovely man who worked and lived near us so was frequently scheduled for the same bus. Benji was the "dog of honor" at our wedding last December. |
