Thank you

[@isabellaherb2216]

You and your service dog are doing great!

[@Wheelchair-bear]

Thanks, he is a natural care giver, a very kind hearted and gentle puppy. I tensed up my muscles in anticipation and wrenched my neck a little on that one. I probably shouldn't be doing things like that at 52.

Craig Blackmer probably shouldn’t be doing that at any age😂

doesnt that hurt the dog

[@Wheelchair-bear]

No, most of my weight supported with my right arm on my wheelchair, I mainly use Trooper for balance and I also make sure any weight I put on him is over his shoulders and not his back.
