MEET BOURBON THE SHOW CHAMPION WHO’S ALWAYS BY SAVANNA’S SIDE

Savanna’s dog, Bourbon, wants to introduce himself and say hello; though, some of you may already know him from your visits to our Midland clinic. Here’s more in his own words. Hi! My name is Bourbon, and I’m a 5-year-old American bully dog. During the day, I get to hang out at work with my awesome human, Savanna, at Altitude PT. Maybe you’ve seen me around the clinic or maybe not, because I’m usually chilling right next to Savanna under the desk and staying calm until it’s outside time. My first day at work, I was so quiet that no one knew I was there until I walked out from under the desk! I love kids, and it’s my favorite when they pay us a visit. Because I’m laid-back and a good listener, I got to be trained as a service dog. I’m here for support to make sure Savanna is okay and to be here when she needs help. She can lean on me whenever she needs to. We’re here for each other. TAKE A BREAK

When we competed in dog shows, Savanna and I got to travel all over the world, and we earned the title of show champion! It was really special to share that with my human, and I couldn’t have done it without her. Savanna says I help her, but it’s a team effort. At the end of the day, we get to take those titles home together. I like to do my best so we can both win.

When you visit us at the clinic, come say hi! I love getting to meet new people.
