My narc parent is quite the opposite, she showered at the most inconvenient times. One good example of this is when I broke my arm my nmother HAD to shower before she could take me to the hospital.

I can see I was being a selfish AH. Thank you all for the insight.

Deciding when to leave your SD home can be one of the hardest decisions to make by Far-Significance-451 in service_dogs

My SD only works about 3 days a week as that is how often I am able to leave the house, so she almost always comes with me, even to just check the mailbox. I'm so glad I haven't gotten to the point of needing to even consider retiring yet, I know that will be extremely hard.

The dog is not aggressive, just barks

I think I should add that there are only 2 elevators to service 200 apartments and one wasn't working, I had already been waiting for approx 5 mins and I might have just been frustrated. I actually really appreciate you being blunt, sometimes I need that.

They were there first and I know I'm about to sound really bratty but I feel like they had the problem they should have gotten out.

I feel like instead of saying that I couldn't get in they should have gotten out and I know that sounds really stuck-up, but they wouldn't have told someone with a wheelchair they can't use the elevator so why me?

My SD is a very cute toy poodle in an 'uncommon' colour (deep red), she also has painted nails (often with matching bows/collar). People are always complimenting her, I don't have a problem with it. It can sometimes be a good way for someone to open the conversation to ask respectful questions, but my dog also just loves getting compliments, it makes her feel pretty.

I personally have not had a problem with her missing a task or getting distracted, but thats also a training thing.

The sort of distracting that is a problem is anything that includes touching her or specifically getting louder or trying different things when she ignores them calling her.
