A working dog is not your pet.
They’re not here for your comfort.
They’re tuned to another frequency—focused, alert, exact.
Guide dogs. Rescue dogs. Herding dogs.
They don’t chase butterflies or interested in friendly strangers.
They take silence as a signal.
They watch the dark so you don’t have to.
They watch their person like the sun.
Some of us want companions.
Some of us need sentries.
Respect the vest.
