Some Beautiful Old Botanical Illustrations From A Gardening Book I Own  ❀

Couldn't resist a bit of Valentine's fun with the birds at work! This is one of our ambassador red-tailed hawks, Jesse, trying to get at her snack! Jesse is a non-releasable ambassador, not a pet, and she had been at our facility for 25 years this year, so she deserves some love! (She is not very good at enrichment, so sometimes she needs 'help!')

My favorite interactions as a service dog handler is when you come across another legit team in a store and both teams are immediately aware of each other but the behavior doesn’t change. Naturally you give each other space but not in a way that inconveniences either of you. Handlers and dogs just going about their business undisturbed.

It’s such a nice change from avoiding unpredictable pets and over enthusiastic people. It’s a glimpse of what it’s like to be fully integrated into a society while also having your disability accommodated.
