I love that maple stood still even after the harness was off, but then he was told to meet them, and he *_INSTANTLY_* went from working dog to friendly dog!
There aren't many celebrities that it would be appropriate to scratch them behind their ear or give them back scratches or belly rubs when you meet them 😉😂
Most people would have been. What are they going to do? Start going crazy and petting the dog while he’s trying to take the harness off? 😂 like what? Maybe a child but not an adult. *Most* people don’t act like wild animals. The fact you made a comment commending the woman for “being respectful while he was taking the harness off” is a problem 🫣
@@zaraheart They've made at least one video about Paul being harassed for not letting someone pat Mr Maple while he was on-duty. I've heard a lot of other people with service animals complain about it too. Lack of decency is way more common than you would think
@@zaraheart I've known people who've been harassed like this repeatedly. Some had to start saying "this is a service dog please don't pet" anytime a stranger approaches.

I love how you can actually see Mr. Maple's demeanour change when the harness is taken off and put back on. There's a noticeable change when he goes from working dog to playful pup, and it's both fascinating and adorable to see 😊❤
That was so kind of you to do. You know Mr. Maple likes to meet people. But I completely respect service animals and their person so I personally don't ask to pet them to begin with. I've seen almost all your videos and thank you for your educational videos as well as letting us in your lives ❤️
@@jessieh9127the way you worded it has an implication that you are saying you wouldn't do what she did. Not being a jerk, just explaining why the first comment said that. 😊
I commented the same first part before I saw this, but I have to say I absolutely agree 100% with the entirety of your statement! What an honor! Paul & Matthew are just the greatest humans!
That was so kind of you to let someone meet Mr. Maple. It seems like they approached with kindness and respect and asked for permission without distracting your dog. Good on them and way to make that person’s day!
I would like Paul to confirm, but it doesn't seem like the fan asked. It seems like they were just happy to see the trio, and Paul chose to offer to let them meet Mr. Maple. That's super important.
Holy cow! That's so sweet and generous of you to take Mr Maples harness off to let him off duty for the woman to pet Mr Maple. It's also VERY IMPORTANT not to pet a working dog! That was educational and IMPORTANT! ❤
It is very nice that you will allow people to pet. Mister maple, even though he is a service dog. Normally, they don't do that. You guys are awesome. Love you all
Other service dogs may not jave as good of an understanding as Mr. Maple that No harness= off duty and harness on = on duty. Because his dog is so well trained he knew he could take the harness off and let Mr. Maple meet the stranger before putting it back on without confusing him. Everu dog is different and the owner knows their dogs limitations and (hopefully!) respects them. Since Mr. Maples service is guiding Paul it was safe ti briefly take him off duty vs someone with maybe a cardiac alert dog or something like that where they need that dog on alert no matter what for their own safety (plus in this specific moment Paul had Matthew as back up). Im not trying to be mean or rude, just explaining why someone may have a very good reason yo deny petting a service dog!
The difference is Paul and Matthew had time to take off his harness and let him be off duty for a few minutes. Other service dog handlers can do this, but it does take more time out of their day. They don't see any value in doing so.
@@RiverWoods111Yes, some may be racing to get somewhere on time. Nice to know guide dog etiquette. I'd always ask anyway. I've encountered a few owners and guide dogs, but never thought to ask to pat one as told not to as a child. But Maple is famous.
@@RiverWoods111 Yes, and also you don't know how that person is feeling in the moment, they may not feel safe/be able to let their SD off duty in that moment.
Mr Maple is so happy meeting new people, glad you got to meet a fan ,who was so nice and respectful of Mr Maple and you in public. Love you have such a nice community of people. ❤😂
This was such an amazing interaction. I’m so happy Paul took off the harness because I really feel dogs like Maple are JUST as excited to make friends as the people wanting to say hello. 🥹 I’m glad they stayed respectful! Sweet hearts all around. 💚
Awesome that he was nice enough to take Maple off duty so that he can get some loving from a stranger. Dont pet them while they are working people and dont get all butt hurt when you cant pet them. They're just trying to save a life. I love you guys sooo much.❤
I just love the fact that Mr. Maple has both of your fun loving, adorable, sweet personalities, just like you both.. best reward is you ALWAYS are laughing and smiling😊..may God keep blessing you ❤
I love how friendly you both are. I totally understand that we don’t want to pet or bring attention to service dogs when they’re on duty, but so many videos I have seen are of people saying “no she’s a service dog don’t touch her!” And then people arguing. But, you took a moment to educate about the harness and off duty status and created a special moment for maple and the people who wanted to say hi. Keep it up!
I love seeing good interactions like this. With my service dog, I keep her vest on but give her a command (I say “okay, say hi”) and then control how long the meet and greet is and call her back to me so she is interacting with another person on my terms and not the other person’s. I love seeing how other people work with their service or guide dogs.
For me that's the hardest part of seeing a service dog while they're on duty. I love doggos, but I know they've got a job to do. So I admire them from afar.
Long time fan! I love you that let someone who was respectful interact. I know service dogs are alert and focused so explaining without the harness he knew he was off duty was awesome! Harness on, back to work!!!
I love the way Mr. Maple parades his leash! When the dogs are pups, they always pick up toys and carry them around to show people, we call it parading. Its so cute to see Maple doing it!
This guy is such a kind soul. My ex is blind and helping to take care of him with simple things that we take for granted is a rewarding feeling. We are still great friends and I help him with his business when he needs it. He single handedly was the person who made the Bioshock series able to run on the PS3.
“He’s so proud of his leash” I think my heart actually melted, that’s so friggen cute 😭 Mr. Maple is the best doggo and deserves all the pets (off-duty of course!)
This is so sweet that you did for a fan. The sad thing is how many entitled jerks literally expect people to let them let their service dog. That harness on versus off is a remarkable change in Maple though!
The leash is Mr Maple’s ultimate diploma. I would be very proud, too. To be a guide dog is one in a million. I mean it is a small percentage of dogs who can do this job. Mr Maple is in special ops or an equivalent to a green beret but super friendly and impeccable customer service. 😊❤
Finding positive videos on social media these days isn't as easy as it should be. I absolutely love your channel and your sweet family. Thank you for sharing with us❤
What I love about the interaction is that there was mutual respect from everyone. Paul, Matthew and Mr Maple taking a few moments to greet a fan. And the fan patiently waited until Paul took off Mr Maple’s harness so she could pet him. Smiles all round… ❤❤
That's honestly so sweet that he took the harness off. You absolutely never need to do that but it's so kind that you do it for fans. I bet that meant a lot to her, cause most of us would never want to interrupt.
Now THAT is an awesome way to let people approach not only YOU but interact with your helper! That is a moment she and WE will remember forever! Thank you, Master Paul ❤😊🤗 and Mr. Maple as well! 🍁 🤗
I would totally like to point out that this is a terrific how-to video to show how to be kind to a blind person and approach their guide dog respectfully. Bravo to one and all! (I would fan-girl over Mr. Maple, too! ❤)
Thank you for the advice and it was really kind of you to let her pet Mr. Maple. Now I understand why the owners say not to pet the service dogs when they are on duty.
Mr. Maple, Paul and Matthew you are just the sweetest most professional individuals and still 💯 % personable and lovely. Love love love to all of you. Your fan today was the epitome of the art of being respectful yet full of genuine Love. Loved her too!❤❤❤❤❤❤

Right? His tail started wagging when it came off and when the harness was on he was all business. What a good boy!
His tail went nuts 😊
It's how he looks at the camera at the end as if to say, "hey, I'm back on duty now, no play speak, thanks" 😂
Service dogs are super heros. They gotta save the day but also need time to play.
I’ve always wondered if you three have ever been recognized in public. How does it make you feel when she recognized you?
