I am rather shocked at some of the comments. Talking too slow?? She has a brain injury!! When my brain injury acts up, I will stutter, talk slower, stop mid sentence because I totally forget what I'm saying. I have a mobility service dog. I can walk. Why are people so insensitive as to question why I need her? I am not required to explain to anyone.. I usually will as long as someone asks nicely. I have a medical condition that has led to multiple back surgeries and spinal issues. I have nerve damage. But I can walk. My balance sucks and I fall easily or just get too weak and have to stop and sit down. She balances me, protects me from falling by putting herself under me, helps me get back up, and will get help if I need it. If I have to sit down on the floor, without her, I cannot get up without someone trained to help me. So, either I never leave home or give up walking and use wheelchairs exclusively. She lets me be one beautiful step closer to normal and helps me to handle dealing with every thing else I have lost.
3 year old comment still gonna reply. Because that’s one of the questions people are allowed to ask. “Is that a service dog?” “What purpose does it serve?”
people man. moki is a mobility dog because when my anxiety is high its really hard to walk because im shaking so much. i cant just sit down because it takes a really long time to stop. thats the main reason why she has mobility tasks. people are inconsiderate.
Thank you! The plum ordeal was funny (at least to us)! I panicked and stopped videoing, but we laughed for quite a bit til I had him put them back. Even when I ate them at home, he was not pleased. LOL! What a guy! I'll make sure he puts the next ones in the cart himself! :D
The two of you are truly an inspiration! I have raised 3 service dog puppies and all of them are now working service dogs. I like to think of them giving the same gifts to their handlers as Windsor gives to you. Thank you so much for sharing and keep up the great work!
Thank you for making this video. It's very lovely to see the interactions between a service dog and their handler. Windsor is a very smart and beautiful dog. :)
Thanks for making this video. You did a great job. As someone with balance issues, I can appreciate some of what you're going through. And you're really brave to do the requests and post the videos online. I hope you know you're making it easier for the rest of us out there! Give Windsor a treat for me! :D
I'm glad you have a dog to help you, we really are blessed to have them. Windsor is amazing! I understand you have a brain injury and I shouldn't of been cutting onions during the part you explained about the employee. This is inspirational and so are you. He's so good at his job and I bet you're proud. You're an amazing person to watch and I love watching what he does. I have a service dog too, though he only does light mobility and nothing like this. It's amazing, really.
You and your dog are both beautiful! Two of our golden doodle puppies just left to start their service dog training. This video gives me insight into what they will be doing. Thanks For Posting. You are a spiritual giant, I love your attitude. God bless you and your dog!
He really didn't like those plums did he! Thank you for sharing a little of your life and your incredible dog, it's really opened my eyes. All the best for your life together :)
It is TRULY a gift of love for you to raise SD pups! How wonderful that all three are now working dogs, bringing joy and much needed help to their handlers. Thank you for caring for others that way!!! I know it's very emotional to send them on their life's journey. Windsor bets those dogs are just as wonderful as he is! :D Windsor loves his job and we'll hope to continue to share and show how he helps me!
I just re-watched the video myself, so I could live the "plum saga" again. Windsor can still be that picky if you jump in and do his job for him! He's a fun boy to have around.
I have watched most, if not all, of your videos with Windsor. I have been amazed at the work the two of you have accomplished and to see how Windsor is able to adapt as you heal and your needs change. I have been training one of my companion dogs some of the tasks a mobility dog would perform in anticipation of some temporary mobility problems I will have in the future (minor surgery). Your videos have been both inspiring and helpful. Be well Christy.
I understand how pain can "detour" your day. I hope Ava, your SDIT (Service Dog In Training) passes through all the learning phases and is a steady help for you. I have constant pain and know how much just getting my shoes from the floor and getting socks out of the drawer can free me up to do something else I may not be able to do, or as well, if I'd put out the energy to get my shoes/socks. Service dogs can do so much to help and I hope Ava can be that for you!
i love this video. my service dog is just a puppy rite now and is still being trained... it is quite the journey. My condition is not as severe, I just have fibromialgia and get very stressed out from the pain. I am very glad I have my service dog Ava. :) I love this video :)
Thank you for sharing your experiences. You and Windsor make a great team. I am in the process of training my own Service Dog and look forward to the day when we will be such a great team.
I know the journey of waiting for your first service dog! I hope he/she ends up being MORE than you ever imagined! It takes time to become a team, so be patient with yourself and your service dog.
thank you very much for sharing with us,windsor is a very beautyful looking dog,clever and funny,but you and him make a very good team,all the best in the future,best wishes x
Every one in the world has something they find challenging whether they share it or not. It is those who share who help others, and helping other enjoy the life given to them by a loving God is what it is all about.
Windsor is such a helpful, sweet, and beautiful dog! What an honor it must be for him to serve you. Wonderful video! Keep up the great work, both of you!
Thank you for sharing sweetie. Great great video. I loved it!! Good luck and God bless during your healing and when you get better looks like you have a friend for life.
Thanks "Silver Howler!" Windsor actually does "Get socks," but thankfully, he doesn't put any rocks in them! HAHA!!!! Service dogs (and many other dogs) are incredible for sure!
Christy, I also have a TBI and I sure appreciate your banner about questions are a source of stress. That is SO true for me plus, I get easily distracted so if someone asks me a question, I will forget what I was doing. I would really appreciate not being spoken to also. That banner gave me hope.
First CHRISTY, GOD BLESS AND HEAL YOU, YOU ARE TRULY INSPIRATIONAL!!!!!! Michael Methot, Any of the Traumatic Brain Injuries severe concussion, ied explosions, severe car injuries where there are severe blunt force trauma to the head with swelling in the brain that never fully resolves itself can cause these "stability" issues. Odd that you have not seen more of these types of service dogs, they are now more prevailent than wheelchair service dogs. I am picking my service dog up next week, it has been a long training process but I have a spinal cord injury and degenerative disease that is very rare, while I can walk very short distances, the Drs. Would prefer that I do not. In my city you see a lot of service dogs, but more for mobility issues for "TBI's".
This was a beautiful video. Your voice is so cute! 3 I'm currently training my own service dog and its been a struggle this video made me smile and know its okay if she messes up every once in a while. :)
You did a great job. I might be getting a service dog for my balance and exhaustion but maybe if it is not too bad i wont. Thank you for making this video it was very cool. Winser is a beautiful dog by the way. Hope you guys are happy together
I wonder if plums either do something to you that he doesn't like or if it messes with his sensing your medical needs. Windsor knows something. He is such a good boy.
youre so inspireing to me i had a streetbike wreck and was paralized in my right arm i just got my service dog she makes it feel like we wher ment to find each other she looks alot like windsor i wish i had a camera hopefully i can get one soon and i will post a video response thankyou
Thats awesome. I wish my dog would be so focused in a store. He likes to shop in the meat department only, and picks out his own special things. So needless to say we're doing store training more and more.
Awesome video :) Summary (in case your injury makes it hard for you to read/understand long comments), you're inspirational & I wish more people could see your videos & learn what real service dogs are & how important they are :)) No idea why it came up in my video recommendations, but SO much better than many I've had in the past from people trying to get attention by claiming poorly trained dogs are "service dogs" & abusing people for even looking at their dog & claiming it's discrimination for them to even have to identify their dog. I wish more people could see your video to see what a REAL service dog looks like, how it acts & how people with real service dogs behave. Must be SO frustrating for you to undoubtedly be questioned on your legitimacy as a result of those sorts of people, sad you need to explain that you have a brain injury & that people shouldn't interrogate you, but good on you for finding solutions to the problems they present & ways to get on with your life, You're inspirational :))))) & I'm also laughing at Windsor's plums :))
I am thinking of applying for a service dog. I have CRPS and I lost the function of my left hand. I am in severe pain and could reaaly use a service dog to retrieve items, help open doors etc. I live in MA, I am unsure if I would qualify for a dog, or where to start.
I am rather shocked at some of the comments. Talking too slow?? She has a brain injury!! When my brain injury acts up, I will stutter, talk slower, stop mid sentence because I totally forget what I'm saying.

Hehe thank you so much for sharing your adventure with us all!!!
It never ceases to amaze me what these dogs can be trained to do, and it's a wonderful thing. You go, girl!

FANTASTIC VIDEO!!!!! I loved watching you and you dog interact! Windsor rocks and so do you!!
I'm so happy that your dog has helped you how she has. I hope you may always have such a smart and loyal helper!

What a wonderful dog. The plum saga was hilarious! I'm so glad you have each other - what a good team.
My 1st thought was one of sadness until I realized how beautiful this is.
Thank you so much for this. You are an amazing woman.
Thank you very much for sharing a snippet of your life and the life of your dog, thank you :)
I just love how our dogs help us. Thank you so much for letting subscrib to your channel ❤️🦮🎊

U two are a great team!! All the best for you!
Loved this. I so miss my Suzi.
HaHa the plum thing cracks me up every time his like hell no what are these things doing in my cart i didn't put them there get out of my cart Plums
I thought that was funny too. He doesn't like anybody his job. Very independent.
Thank you SO much for sharing this wonderful video.
Christy, I also have a TBI and I sure appreciate your banner about questions are a source of stress. That is SO true for me plus, I get easily distracted so if someone asks me a question, I will forget what I was doing. I would really appreciate not being spoken to also. That banner gave me hope.
Way to go,Windsor !!!!!!!!!!!
First CHRISTY, GOD BLESS AND HEAL YOU, YOU ARE TRULY INSPIRATIONAL!!!!!!

I'm getting my first service dog soon too! I'm so excited.
Cute video.
You did a great job. I might be getting a service dog for my balance and exhaustion but maybe if it is not too bad i wont. Thank you for making this video it was very cool. Winser is a beautiful dog by the way. Hope you guys are happy together
You are so fantastic. Both of ya! Best of luck to you.
He's incredible!
That's super! I hope things are going well with your training. I know it's alot, alot, alot of work and time and patience, but it's all well worth it!
Lol Windsor 'Get out you plumbs, I thought I got rid of you earlier!" precious!
You are a beautiful woman btw, a true natural beauty!
This is wonderful! I'm glad you have Windsor to help you. He seems like such a well train, smart dog. =] I hope everything goes well for you.
this makes me think about my dog. i love my dog shes always by myside its a rare thing.
Well Done! Great job. I cant get my dog to bring anything without him pouncing on it first.
I wonder if plums either do something to you that he doesn't like or if it messes with his sensing your medical needs. Windsor knows something. He is such a good boy.
That is one well trained dog.
What a sweet baby...
Your voice is adorable! Very nice to listen to!
Great job! Love the plums! Sounds like something my service dog would do.
great teamwork guys!
I'm in love with you two 😍 I also have a service dog 🐾🙋 A SD is the best thing, that can ever happen to a person 👍
This is lovely! :) You two are so cute, beautiful!
Beautiful! Ur windsor looks a lot like my ozzie! We have been a team for almost 5 years
youre so inspireing to me i had a streetbike wreck and was paralized in my right arm
i just got my service dog she makes it feel like we wher ment to find each other she looks alot like windsor i wish i had a camera hopefully i can get one soon and i will post a video response thankyou
Perhaps Mr. Windsor simply disapproves of prunes.
Many people do.
This was a wonderful video!
Beautiful video xxx
May you recover soon.
You have a amazing service dog
Thanks for sharing this!
Good boy Windsor!
I love this video thankyou
You're very brave for making this video!
That is beautiful.
This is so beautiful
sorry if this sounds bad but i love your voice so much!
Thats awesome. I wish my dog would be so focused in a store. He likes to shop in the meat department only, and picks out his own special things. So needless to say we're doing store training more and more.
If there were doing that they weren't ready for PA
Thank you
Damn onions, I shouldn't be cutting them while I watch this
yay for Buddy!
amazing dog
He is sooo cute
Lol those silly plums
Where did you get your awesome handle harness??
I’m your 1,000 subscriber!
Awesome video :)
Summary (in case your injury makes it hard for you to read/understand long comments), you're inspirational & I wish more people could see your videos & learn what real service dogs are & how important they are :))

Good job keep up the good work
Very inspirational

Thank you! God bless.
nice dog ................
What is the brand name of the harness? Where did you purchase it? I like your better than the chain harness
It’s a mobility support harness made by bold lead designs
