Hello everyone, I am happy to share that today is the four-year anniversary 
from when I first met Larry back in 2017. It goes without saying that Larry 
is my guide dog however, considering that he has what I would consider a 
non-traditional dog name, I figured that I would put that out there as a 
disclaimer. In any case, I still remember that day as if it was yesterday. 
Larry and I were partnered here in Houston Texas and our training was done 
at home. This was during the Super bowl which also took place here in 
Houston texas. A great deal has changed since he and I became partners. Not 
only did I get married, but a new normal has come upon us. While he has not 
done as much guiding over the last eight months, he is still on top of it. 
He is such a character, still behaving as if he was 2 years old in many 
aspects, yet he does a great job when it comes to guiding. I believe that 
as the years pass, he will continue to have a very happy personality and 
will only be stopped by physical limitations. Thank you to guiding Eyes for 
the Blind for providing such a wonderful dog, and giving me the opportunity 
to enjoy a great partnership. I am looking forward to many more years with 
larry.
