What's up dog?

My dog Quinn makes living in the world easier. I have several mental illnesses and she helps me navigate the world and feel safer and more confident in it.

She helps with my anxiety about public spaces. She loves her visits to the supermarket. She is always looking smart in her assistance dog jacket. She is keen to work and help me. She loves when I give her the word that we are going on an adventure outside somewhere. She has some pug mates and has fun with them every Sunday. Her best mate Steve and her get into lots of mischief together.
She loves her Likimat. She loves fresh fruit and raw veggies. She gives great snuggles and provides therapy to me when I need it. She is very intelligent and very keen to work.

We are working towards our Public Access Test which will allow her to come to work with me and make the work day that bit easier.
