My human (@DavisonEm) taught me to wave for the camera and I asked her if I could show it off on my socials.

Please retweet if you want to give me a virtual treat to say well done and that I’m a good girl.

I’ve been featured along with my human in @guidedogs Inside Track.

We are on the cover and have a 3 page spread.

Unity my sister and guiding predecessor is also mentioned as she has had a puppy named after her in her memory.

Mum said she’s going to be a regular contributor!

If you’re disabled/chronically ill and travel in London then you need to take part in these @TfL surveys.

TfL is exploring some transport changes.

But these could have an impact on disabled people.

I went to see the premiere of the new @netflix film #TheGrayMan

I was invited by @RNIB as this film was the first ever premiere to have an audio description showing.

It was quite a surreal moment to be on red carpet!

Want to see how a guide dog uses a @TfL London tube escalator?

Watch my video to see how it’s done.

@guidedogs

Also see my previous thread for any more information about guide dogs using escalators in London.

[Emily Davison @DavisonEm]

@TfL I’m a London based guide dog owner whose dog is escalator trained

I really think that more work needs to be done in communicating with the public that that standing on the right rule does not apply to guide dog owners for safety and accessibility reasons.

@IrishMonkey84 Yep, she’s the boss! Her big sister taught her well

Life with a guide dog…
How to get what they want

[Unity and Rosie the Guide Dogs @unityandrosiegd]

@brianwinteruk @guidedogs I haven’t yet, I pray that I never will

[Unity and Rosie the Guide Dogs @unityandrosiegd]

My clever girl doing her stuff on an escalator.

Rosie is a specially trained guide dog who is qualified to use TFL escalators.

@hhysted @guidedogs @Kika_GuideDog @BlindDad_Uk @TfL I think that’s an excellent idea

[Unity and Rosie the Guide Dogs @unityandrosiegd]

@SusannahFleming @GuideDogAva @guidedogs Basically it’s an extra skill that they are taught. It tends to be reserved for dogs at work and live in London and need to use them a lot. Even when we are trained we are only allowed to use TfL escalators because they are longer and designed to be more easy for them.

[Unity and Rosie the Guide Dogs @unityandrosiegd]

@GuideDogAva @guidedogs Thank you! Mum bought it for me because I really feel the cold. I have another one in pink too

[Unity and Rosie the Guide Dogs @unityandrosiegd]

Rosie is honestly such a nosey girl.
She decided she’s jump up, put her paws on the ledge to get a better view of the River Thames!
She amply named Nosey Rosie!

Just another day at the office finding curbs four little Rosie 🦮

‘You’re perfect for each other.’ In her presence, I felt I could be something more than what I was.’

It is with great sadness that I have to tell you that my dear, sweet Unity passed away this morning.

After fighting cancer for a year she couldn’t fight any more.

So I made the heartbreaking decision to let her go.

My world is shattered.

[Unity and Rosie the Guide Dogs @unityandrosiegd]

Meet the duo!
Rosie the working guide dog 🖤
Unity the retired guide 💛

Both beautiful and kind.
Both cheeky and spirited.

Rosie loves hugs and toys.
Unity loves chilling and food.

Both are the loves of my life,

@guidedogs
