More: George loves hiking with me, carting our backpacks for us and still giving me balance in the trails. As he is my mobility service dog. He loves the outdoors and all the wildlife like I do. He’s nose to nose with a 29 yr old , 65 pound snapping turtle in his picture! What a wonderful experience for the both of us. Having survived a massive brain tumor, I received George to assist me with my balance plus. But he is my freedom & I can once again go enjoy nature on “our” own At his young age we look forward to our lives next new adventure.
