New Dog - Service Dog

We have several new dogs in the pack, a service dog and a clergy dog. I shit you not.

One is a psychiatric service dog. She goes everywhere with her person, a former Marine who fought in Iraq, Faluja, came back with a leg injury and PTSD. She sense when he is about to have a panic attack and heads it off, usually by licking him. Licking assure him he is not alone, that everything will be OK. She also goes around corners first, to show it is clear, and does the same into rooms.

The clergy dog is an ordained chaplain dog. He and his person partner, also an ordained pastor, minister at the All Souls
Unified Life Church. He does not do sermons, but is always up at the pulpit with his partner, and goes on all hospital and other visits.

There is building tension in the pack in regards to these two, especially the clergy dog. Some say that a dog playing pastor is silly but also dangerous. It can only draw unnecessary attention to us, they say. "We can only point the finger so much at wolves," they say, meaning werewolves. An ordained werewolf. Now that makes me laugh.

I have to hit the road again tomorrow. Jack is going to be very pissed, if he even notices I am gone. But it cannot be helped. I have to go find a dog who has some critical information which I need. I will try to make posts here to keep you all updated on where I am and what I am doing. No promises.

Speaking of which, Warin, you out there?
