Hi everyone! I want to start by saying thank you to everyone who reads our blog, newcomers and long-time followers alike. It was my hope that our experiences would help others and that has been the case! I've got a lot more on my plate nowadays than when I started this blog and website in 2016, but I really want to do my best to keep up with it to continue helping fellow CRPSers and service dog teams.
If you read my post from a few weeks ago about our decision to retire Robbie, you know some changes are coming up for our team. I need to start the selection process for Robbie's successor, and that's a lot more involved than most people realize. Since I started writing about my adventures with Robbie after we found him, I really want to write about what's going into our search as it is happening to give future teams a little insight onto all of the emotions, details of planning, search criteria, what retirement is like for Robbie, and more. I will be starting a series of blog posts to cover all of those things, as well as updates on how the search is going. You'll be able to find all of these posts in a new category link labelled, The Next Chapter. I'll likely cross tag them in other categories as well, but if you're looking to find all of this new series in one place, you can go to the "categories" column on the side of the page and click on "The Next Chapter." Please be patient with me, as I'll be writing posts as they develop over time. I have no idea how long this process will take. It took us several months to find Robbie. Stay tuned!
