- Sunny's 1st Birthday!!!
Today we celebrated Sunny's first birthday! He has grown so much. Today we went to PetSmart to pick out a birthday present and treat. I went in there with the intention of only buying one treat and one toy... that didn't work. We ended up getting two toys and four treats!!! Sunny was happy... my wallet was hurting. After that we went back to the house and he had some birthday cake. Sunny Picking out his birthday toy. PetSmart birthday haul Sunny blowing out his candles Cake time!!! Happy birthday to the bestest boy! Mamma loves you to the moon and back!

Today Sunny and I went to Katy Mills Mall to practice for his test. He did really well. There were a few times when I started to feel unwell and had to sit and rest. I would point to my lap and he would lay on my lap and use his body to stop my head from hitting the floor. I think he is gonna go through task training quickly considering that is pretty much one of his tasks and I didn't even teach it to him. Good job Sunny!!! Sunny does not like the bookstore... or maybe he just doesn't like how long I stay in there.

Sunny had his third public access training today. He did pretty well. Food and people are gonna be his biggest challenges. Part of the test he is going to have to take before getting to task training involves remaining in a down position while a child pets him. Another part involves him sitting under a table (like we are eating out) and having treats thrown his way (to simulate dropped food) and he has to be able to ignore it and NOT eat it... this one has been difficult for him. Overall he did good though.

I am training Sunny, with the help of Dog Training Elite, to be my psychiatric and medical alert service dog. I have a few health problems and disorders that I've lived with all my life.

As the name implies PNES is a seizure disorder that can wrek havoc sometimes. I also have Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia syndrome (PoTS).
