He's adorable! And the name fits perfectly. What a cutie.
Is there a retirement age for service dogs? If not and if he still enjoys it and gets the job done, no need to retire I would think.

Thanks..From what I am told it is 6 to 8 years old...he has slowed down a little and needs to have a little more time and extra care...but I agree with you!!!!

Yay another service dog! I have one too, My chihuahua :) Welcome.
And no there isn't really a specified retirement age for a service dog as far asIi know. It depends on each dog, like if they get arthritis bad, it would be hard for them to be out much. So it really just depends on the dog.Scarlett_O' likes this.
My dogs are not spoiled, I am just well trained
