My little red tether is my anchor in running with my friends. A beautiful guide dog has been my tether/anchor in mobility and independence for 17 years: 1. Pantera 2. Cricket, and now my beautiful 3. Georgina (Georgie). A life of family and friends is my joy and anchor in life.

Cricket


Last evening Steve and I had the chance to go out with some dear friends.  He is now at the point of considering a guide dog very seriously.  I am so excited for him.  I told him he will be amazed at the joy of walking again.  Steve and I thoroughly enjoyed sharing all the amazingness of Cricket.  Cricket sat there looking at our friends very intently as if she knew what we were talking about.  She seemed to be on her best behavior :). 

Cricket and I enjoyed a nice lunch with friends (thank you) today and a walk up to the dentist.  I know fun, right.  Then, she walked back briskly to the office for dinner time and more sessions.  She is such a joy, and I am very grateful for the blessing of her in my life.

Cricket is great! It's hard not to share Cricket stories...especially with somebody who is very interested in guide dogs!
