Day 7 - The Mall




Today we went back to the mall but this time with Danny. We met at the food court, not the best place to attempt with Danny. He was fine until he discovered the soda machine at one of the counters. He had a pretty big meltdown. But once we got him away from the food court he was cool as a cucumber. The amazing part is watching how Kermit kicked it into action when Danny became upset. Kermit layed by Danny and was resting his head across Danny's shoulder and neck as if to hug him. He gently licked his neck showing such love and concern for his boy. Even RazR, another boy, Matthew's service dog, tried to comfort Danny. The picture is priceless. He tethered to Kermit and even held his leash and helped walk him. We did 2 indoor tracks. Danny hid with Uncle Pat & Aunt Madonna inside JCPenney. Kermit found him both times within no time at all! Only problem is that when Kermit was wagging his tail after finding Danny in the baby section, his tail was taking out all the baby socks and landing them on the floor! He does have a thing for socks but that's getting a little carried away. Kermit was a hit at the mall as always. He really sucks up the attention. We have video of some of the tracks, if mom can just figure out how to upload them onto the blog. Hopefully that will be within the next day or so.

  1. Kermit is so perfect for Danny! He did an awesome job of trying to comfort him. In time as Danny bonds more and more with Kermit, I think Danny will be ok going out places with his new best buddy Kermit. I just love this big ole horse dog :)
