Today was a fun day with Benji. We went to a scholarship banquet hosted by the university. I wish I would've gotten a picture with me looking all fancy and Benji looking like he normally does, but we didn't get a picture. We got a lot of attention from all of the donors and fellow students. He did a lot better than I was expecting, he was a little nervous around people with canes, but he hid it really well despite that! He's learning to handle his stress a lot better and not let it show and clearly. We went up for food twice and both times he did really well with leave it and just being around a lot of people and food. He stayed down the whole time that I was talking with the donors and my friends at my table. I got a lot of comments that people kept forgetting that he was there or that they didn't notice he was there. Which is really good because that's what is supposed to happen with a service dog!
When we arrived at home, I decided to take the night off from doing homework so I brought out my ukulele to play for Maddie and the dogs. Benji didn't like my playing so much, but Finley was totally down to get serenaded by Maddie and I singing and playing to him!
