Hi All,
I have enjoyed reading about your experiences traveling with service dogs. I am a strong supporter of a local organization Canine Partners For Life. I am a true believer in the importance of service dogs and what a gift they are. The TV shows that highlight the training and how they give independence always make me cry with joy for the recipients.
My family has a Lab and he is a big cutie pie. He would have made a terrific service dog probably. My sister is a diabetic, and he learned to get someone (usually Mom) if she has a low sugar - it is truly amazing because we are convinced that there are occasions where this has saved her life. In addition to this lifesaving ability, he also retrieves the newspaper from the bottom of the driveway, and the mail from the mailman (he stands on the side of the truck every afternoon)... smart puppy.
I will continue to support my local organization so that many more can enjoy the freedoms that you have gained with your companion helpers.
Have fun on all your cruises!

Wubbat - thank you for taking the time to share this information. It is so very interesting and gives so much more meaning to visiting these islands that many take for granted.
