What's up dog?
Having served 30 years in the ADF, Norris my Assistance Dog has allowed me to participate in daily activities other people would not think twice about. Before Norris I was to scared to go out shopping visit restaurants, public transport, even just leaving my house. He has given me quality of life and confidence to tackle my mental health issues.
