IT’s SNOWING!!! I had so much fun eating, rolling and playing in the snow!!!

2022 has been busy for me so far. I have been hard
at work helping and supporting my Forever Hero!
He has a lot to learn from me. I am definitely the
right pup for the job because he tells me he didn't
know how he did it all before me ❤️

Hey,

This week I got to tour a local post office 🇺🇸 right after the carriers zipped off 🚛💨 to their routes 📪. I’m pretty sure some of the remaining boxes 📦 had yummy dog treats 🥓 in them and I lost count of how many letters ✉️ were going to Santa 🧑‍🎄 at the North Pole 🎄.

My Christmas list has only one thing on it. It’s to finally meet my forever hero and I can barely contain myself because Christmas for me will happen Monday. 🐕‍🦺🦸‍♂️🐾👏🇺🇸

Hey,

This weekend my buddy Bradley Valor and I checked out some of the first responder vehicles getting ready for the Valdosta Christmas 🎄 parade. Thanks to the Valdosta Fire Department heroes for letting us get a few pictures 📸 and thank you so much for what y’all do 🇺🇸 .

I visited Dr. Graham and Ms. Macie today at Northside Animal Hospital for my final wellness check and vaccine. Knock on wood (whatever that means) the next time I go to the vet it will be with my forever hero 👏. Bradley Valor agreed to get in the pic as long as he didn’t get a shot too 💉.

Thanks Dr. Graham and your amazing team for taking great care of me and my fellow Valor Service Dogs recruits.

Hope everyone had a great day. Part of my training today was becoming familiar with a barbershop 💈. The gentlemen with the snazzy blue shirts used buzzy things (clippers) with loud vaccuum hoses attached, and blower whichamacallits. If that place was for grooming why didn’t anyones nails get clipped or paw hair get trimmed or ears get cleaned?

On our way out Mr. Ryan asked me to do an up on a barber chairs lowest foot rest. That was too easy so I struck a pose from the highest point. Finally to ensure I don’t have any issues with large inflatable decorations we walked through the neighbors yard (with permission) visiting snoopy, several snowmen, and plenty of lit up Christmas trees. I was unphased 👏.

Yup, life is good as a Valor Service Dogs recruit.

Hey,

I’m in my last few weeks of advanced training and I can’t stop thinking about meeting my forever hero soon 🇺🇸.

Yesterday I went to Tallahassee to practice several of my skills in much busier locations than I’ve seen in a while. There were all kinds of distractions but I was unphased and performed like an absolute Olympian 🥇 the entire day. Being Mr. Ryan didn’t get any good action shots because he was keeping up with my awesomeness, I did pose for a few good pictures 📸. My buddy Bradley Valor and I slept the entire trip back to GA. 💤

Life is so, so good as a Valor Service Dogs recruit.

Sundays I get to play, rest and repeat. Here I am dozing off for another nap 💤 . I’m beginning to dream more and more about meeting my forever hero 🇺🇸 next month. I can’t wait!

Yup, I’m learning how to play the piano 😂. Check out these pics of Ms. Tiffany teaching me the basics and don’t miss the one of my sassy post jam session pose.

(From Ms. Tiffany, “amazingly as I pointed to a few keys at a time Chip played them with his nose then waited for me to point again”). .

As a soon to be service dog it's important that I do not get startled by weird/sudden sounds so I stopped by to see Mr. Kevin at Smith Tire Company. As we walked by the open garage bays I could hear some interesting new noises but I ignored them like a boss. We made a short stop by the customer waiting area to practice a few commands before going into the garage area where nothing phased me. Hiss noises from those weird looking air hoses...no problem. Burrraapp, burrraapp noises from those tire take off tool things...too easy, and pop, bang, clang, hisses from the tire machine contraption almost put me to sleep. Throughout the training session Mr. Ryan kept saying nice things to me and giving me treats which was great.

One of the best things about doing my advanced training in Georgia is getting to see Dr. Graham and his pawsome 🐾staff at Northside Animal Hospital. I’ve heard other Valor Service Dogs 🦮🐕‍🦺bark highly 🏆 of them and Dr. Graham is so nice that I didn’t feel any of my vaccines 💉 because we were too busy talking.

Thanks Dr. Graham and team for taking great care of us Valor Service Dogs

My coach was soooo proud of me for showing ALL the self control around all the socks!

Cuddles are wonderful after a hard day.

This face is my feelings concerning 2020. The second look is me looking up to 2021. It will be a good year. Happy New Year's everyone.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas vacation.

Ok!!!! I deserve high end treats and the best Christmas toy ever! Don't you think?

Mom just said, "This is my 4th dog and I get a Marley." I have no idea what she means. Please help me out with this Marley thing. Mom said, ,"read all the captions under each picture. You'll understand."

Mom and I were outside on the patio with the Juliet's at Lakeland's Millers Ale House. I was a real good boy but I didn't know what to do with my arm. My water bowl seemed like a good place to put it. I didn't even care that there was another dog there either. 🇺🇸🐾

"Veterans know better than anyone else the price of freedom, for they’ve suffered the scars of war. We can offer them no better tribute than to protect what they have won for us.”
A quote by: Ronald Reagan 1988

Veterans Day 2020 We honor and thank our living veterans and the veterans who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

How could mom tell me "leave it" when there are CARROTS? How? 😢

03/11/2020

It's not to late to vote. My little self is heading in now. 🇺🇸

I'm innocent. Can't you tell? Anyway don't you use this long white stuff for Halloween? I'm only helping to decorate.

27/10/2020

I'm really trying (sometimes.) Other times I forget he is an oldie but goodie and I get puppy zoomies which drives him crazy. Isn't this so sweet though? Oh! Can you believe I was Noah's size 2 weeks ago?

24/10/2020

Mom gave me a B for being a good boy on my first outing at a food store. I even saw another dog and cared less. A+ on that one. 🎃

19/10/2020

Good morning Monday! Have a great week everyone.🐾🇺🇸

16/10/2020

I had my first group class today and I was SO good! I made eye contact with my puppy coach, I laid at her feet like a nice calm boy and I didn’t even try to play with all the other pups. I was born for this!

13/10/2020

We already love each other 💕 I can’t wait to get my training started!
