#NationalLoveYourPetDay- Although Dog Guides are working assistance dogs and not pets, they are loved unconditionally and become part of families.

So take some extra time today to tell them how much your Dog Guide means to you.

On Valentine’s Day, we want to shine a spotlight on a very special kind of love - the bond a #lfcdogguides team shares.

After a day of hard work assisting their handlers, these furry valentines ask for nothing more than a belly rub and our respect.

[LFC Dog Guides @LFCDogGuides]

Happy Valentine's Day to all our clients, donors, volunteers, lions and staff who support LFCDG and our mission. Without you, we would not be able to do the amazing work we do. #happyvalentinesday

Through insulin doses and moments of care,
Our bond deepens beyond compare.

Your lows make me drool, I must stay alert
To keep you safe and alleviate any discomfort

I show my love with wet kisses and a wagging tail
Because with you, dear human, our love prevails.
