Chipotle usually occupies the opposite end of the couch from me. Sometimes, though, he makes a different choice. ❤️❤️

Chipotle loves playing with his Chewbaru Outbark.
He especially loves the canine themed water bottle squeaker. Today, he managed to chew through the stitching on the bottom of the bottle toy. When I removed the plastic speaker, I saw an imprint. Expecting a standard warning, I laughed out loud: “Game over. Your dog won. Discard this squeaker.”

As I came to the dealer to have my tire pressure monitor replaced, one of the service techs recognized me.
She went to the drawer and pulled out this thing she had been holding onto all year just for us… Behold, the Chewbaru Outbark!
When you open up the hatch, a water bottle’s inside— a second toy! I can’t wait to give this to Chipotle at Christmas. Thank you, Shawna, and your friends at Ciocca Subaru!!!

“What’s in the bag, man?!”

I often get asked what’s in the pouch on my right side.
The answer: kibble, mostly.
Chipotle eats Purina ProPlan Large Breed Chicken and Rice.  I divide up his meals between breakfast, dinner, and pouch.

And then, depending on the day and our plans, I include high value treats.
High value treats are extra reinforcement when he does something difficult or is in a stressful environment. Examples include carrots and string cheese. Lots of nutrition and lower calorie.

I also really like Fresh Pet Chicken with Spinach and Cranberries. The bits look like mini Italian meatballs, and they freeze well.
I imagine they’re poultry Dippin’ Dots.

Onthe right of the photo, you can see I’ve already separated the 6 # package into quart freezer bags.
Chipotle is right in the middle – – supervising the transfer process of this exceptionally valuable commodity!

Life with Chipotle:

This is what the dry mop collected on a quick run through the house this morning. I do this about once every four days, and it really helps. For context: Chipotle also gets brushed regularly with a Furminator and has fish oil in the morning.

Reframe dog fur as glitter or pixie dust, and you’re good to go!

Chipotle life: a great down stay while waiting! And a paw over the foot.

Today is Chipotle’s 5th birthday! We’ve been together for three years. While the adventures we’ve had are not the ones I anticipated, it’s been a joy to have him by my side. He gives me confidence I didn’t know I needed and keeps me upright in so many ways!
If you see us around, say hi. Also, give thanks for Beth and Chris Favorin, his puppy raisers.

Yesterday, thanks to Susquehanna Service Dogs, we got to visit Paris and have our picture taken in front of the Eiffel Tower!

Every year, they host Partner's Day. It's a chance to interact with the trainers, meet other SSD partner teams, ask questions, learn, and thank the hundreds of volunteers who help raise, train, and place these magnificent dogs.

We also went through a Parisian-themed obstacle course. It's fun to show off all Chipotle knows and does, AND it also serves as the Public Access Test through Assistance Dogs International.

Great news, World-- We're re-certified for another year of adventures.

See you out there.

Rachael and Chipotle
