What Delivery Day REALLY Looks Like: Chance Edition 🐾

Early alarms. Miles of freeway. Coffee fuel. Puppy breath.
Every clip in this reel is timestamped—because bringing a future service dog to their trainer isn’t a moment, it’s a day.

Endless gratitude to the ADI Breeding Cooperative and Guide Dogs of America for the care, intention, and partnership that make days like this possible.

Chance is officially on his way. 💛

Saying goodbye to the dog that started it all.

Orbit came into our lives and quietly changed everything.

He walked beside us as we learned,
grew, and began to imagine a different future—
one where children aren’t asked to fit in, but belong.

The work we do today exists because of what he showed us, simply by being who he was.

Thank you, Orbit,
for showing us the way. 🧡
