Bud on the Plane

Bud, I am glad you retired because you did not like traveling. Bud, for all purposes is retired from being a service dog because he didn't love it like Jetta did. Bud came with me to montana as my retired service dog legally. He did really well. He managed and was a very good boy until the layover in Seattle. That was until the layover in Seattle where he was supposed to potty in the airport. He said, "Mom, I don't want to go here. This isn't real grass. This stinks."As you can see, he wouldn't even go there for Jewel, whom he loves. So basically he held his bladder until we got to Montana several hours later. Here is another picture of him in the plane. He was sort of crowded. As you can see, he has a neck pillow to help make him comfortable. It was all worth it when we landed. He loved the Montana air and his tail started wagging again. When traveling with a service dog, this is a potential problem. Most all of service dogs would have gone pee on command. This is another reason he is retired now. Oh, Buddy boy, what am I going to do with you?
