Here's my #minischauzner having some fun in the backyard. Foundation-type tasks is part of his #servicedog training. Positional work is good for queues, getting in behind the trolley. The jumping helps build confidence for getting on trains. youtu.be/IxkjKYgo2iM

What I love about my husband is that he sees my #disability and supports me to #keepgoing. What I love about my #minischnauzner is that he sees my disability and is completely neutral. Here's a vid showing how my #servicedog in training helps me out. youtu.be/uenoSFkqEK4

my #minischnauzer is ok to start #publicaccesstraining as a #servicedog or disability assistance as they're called here in NZ. He's visiting a few local train stations and walking through an empty train for the first time youtu.be/3cRKUWIKeuI #arthritis #livefree #disability

6 months on and #garmin #wearables help me to manage my #chronicillness and #pacing. Some of the metrics in the #garminfenix 6S weren't as accurate as I thought they would be, check out the difference between the watch and a medical grade sleep test. youtu.be/N2eb13-DWjY
