My New Co-Worker

The summer internship program started this week.  We got a guy from UT Dallas who is a psychology student waiting to start his graduate work.  Jeff is visually impaired.  He was in a hunting accident about 4-5 years ago.  I don't know all of the details, but he lost his left eye and has lots of major reconstruction work done on his face.  Coming to work everyday with Jeff is Michael.  Michael is a yellow Lab, seeing-eye dog.  He is the sweetest, goofiest dog!!!  Jeff has been assigned to help me with the project I'm working on, so I get to hang out with Michael, too!!!  At the end of the day, Jeff will take off the harness, so Michael isn't "working" and we can play.  He will shake my hand and let me scratch his tummy!!  When Michael is working, I can only pet him when he's laying down.  I took my camera to work today and got some shots of Michael.  So, meet my new co-worker, Michael.

 

Toodles,
