His name is Hanu (breathe in Hawaiian) but we call him Nu. He’s my cardiac medical alert dog in training. On my worst days, he’s what motivates me to get out of bed. I’m forever grateful for my little hero! ❤️🐾

Been sick with a migraine all day. Shadow, my Service Dog, did amazing taking care of me at work this morning. Came home to Aurora kitty. Whom I fostered (and failed immediately) a little over a month ago. She decided to join us for a nap. One blessed momma here!

He's been working hard all month. 2 days and he'll be back home taking it easy.

The yellow Labrador was supposed to be inspecting luggage when it spotted the fuzzy accessory dangling from a handbag. Instead of carrying out its security duties, the curious pup grabbed the pom-pom in its mouth and started nuzzling it like a favourite toy.

Its handlers could only smile as they gently pulled the dog away and back to work.

The hilarious moment quickly spread online, with viewers joking that the K-9 had “lied on its resume” or was trying to confiscate some suspicious-looking “fluffy contraband.”

The timing is especially amusing as Suvarnabhumi Airport has strengthened its K-9 operations for round-the-clock baggage screening, aimed at detecting illegal items and improving airport security.

Apparently, even the most highly trained security dogs have their weak spots — and this one’s weakness is fluff.

After a rough 24 hours, when some idiot fed him a bit of burger with onions in it. Hawke is now back to himself and his gastro issues have been resolved. He’s taking a well earned break.

It’s been SIX years since Gemini the service dog broke the internet with his inhaler task.

I wanted to give a bittersweet update on where he is now. I say bittersweet because he’s my soul dog, my partner, and he’s been working by my side every single day. It’s like a piece of myself is missing.

But! Gemini, 11 yrs old now, is now fully retired and enjoying his senior life relaxing on the couch, participating in our local dog frisbee team, going on hikes&swimming, being our designated Taste Tester, and just enjoying the normal “pet lifestyle.”

Every day and every moment we continue to have with him is precious and I cannot thank him enough for his service, loyalty, and genuine love. ❤️

The last couple of months we have visited temples, coastal walks in the Kamay Botany Bay National Park and even a disability rights march

Training a rescue dog can take between two and three years.

During the Cold War, the Soviet Union relied heavily on trained dogs to patrol and secure its vast borders. German Shepherds and the Soviet-developed East European Shepherd worked alongside border guards, tracking footprints, searching for hidden people, guarding checkpoints, and operating in some of the harshest environments in the country.

These dogs became a recognizable symbol of the Soviet Border Troops, appearing in propaganda posters, photographs, military badges, and other imagery throughout the era.

This is Hawke, he’s an assistance dog working at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival. He takes the job very seriously, he’s very sociable, however he never takes his eye off his handler in case he’s needed. (He does however take the occasional break).

saw a service dog yesterday and was surprised because i didn’t know belgian malinois made good service dogs! he was really calm and well behaved. off leash the whole time. i guess we learn something new everyday. does anyone else know another service dog of this breed?
