This is Vela (nursing mom) telling me 7 cups of food a day isn’t enough (it is). #DogsofMastodon #ServiceDogs #FeedMe

I think I’ll pass on dessert. #DogsofMastodon #servicedogs.

Puppies are back. Small litter. This is the “J” litter. Names will start with a J. One male, one female. #DogsOfMastodon #ServiceDogs

#MutualAidRequest day four 🏳️‍⚧️

update: We've received $300 of donations! This might not seem like a big milestone to some, but this is life changing for me! Thank you all so very much for your kindness!! I almost have enough to pay one of the remaining school fees now! I can't thank everyone who has donated or shared enough. Thank you for helping me make my dreams come true!!

Hi, I'm Cey. I'm trans️‍🏳️‍⚧️ and stuck in a very controlling and abusive household. I recently got accepted into my dream college (NIU), and this might be my only good shot at moving out and building a better life for myself and my support dog. College fees are more than I had anticipated, and I've spent all of my savings just on solidifying my spot in the school. I'm struggling a lot to get financial aid (my parents refused to fill out the FAFSA, because they don't want me to leave). I'm doing everything in my power to make this work out, but I can't afford the fees, let alone tuition, housing, and basic necessities. I'll need to leave for school on July 30th, if everything works out. I'm doing everything I can to try to get a job and save up before I have to leave, but I haven't been able to land a position yet. Due to my situation and environment, I'm at a very high risk of becoming homeless. I'm also in southern USA, which is very hostile for trans people. Being able to go to a safe state, have a safe place to sleep, be able to further my education, and make my dreams of a better life come true would be incredible. Anything at all helps immensely, and I will be eternally grateful! Just sharing helps! Thank you so much for your time and for helping me get to safety!

To anyone who shares or supports: I cannot thank you enough! You're helping me to get out of a situation that I wasn't sure I ever would. You're helping me chase my dreams and change my life for the better. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Things have taken a turn for me in both good and bad ways recently. I got accepted into my dream school, but I'm struggling to be able to afford to go. And since being accepted into my dream school and wanting to leave my abusive household, I'm at an even higher risk of homelessness now. Anything helps greatly, even just sharing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart :QueerCat_Trans:

day seven and we've raised $300 so far!! Thank you so much everyone :QueerCatHeart_Trans: !!

update: just got an email from the school, I got a partial scholarship for my academic abilities!! that's so cool I'm so excited!! that will be really helpful! in light of that and also having applied to as many jobs as I can, I've lowered the goal a lot. Now it's for just enough to cover transport and the final fees, since I can use the scholarship for books, and part of tuition and housing. I'm hoping I'll hear back from one of the applications soon and be able to get a job. The sooner the better, I need to save up as much as I can, and hopefully I'll be able to transfer to a location near school so I'll already have a stable job in place. Thank you all for helping!!

Condo board backs down after trying to restrict visitors with service dogs
The board of a Toronto-area condo is reversing course on an order that forced a disabled woman with a service dog to register with the property manager every time she wanted to visit the building, where her mother and sister live.

A Canadian woman who is deaf says she was berated, threatened and removed from a Porter Airlines flight last month, over a misunderstanding about her service dog. The airline should have to do more than pay a fine and make a donation to a charity of her choice. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/porter-airlines-deaf-service-dog-1.7363838 #AirlineAbleism #ServiceDogs

These two just got hit with a $413 vet bill for their service dog. Please consider giving any amount. Anything helps.

There's an industry out there that provides very official looking service dog vests and even service dog ID cards," said Rinn. "And people use them to get access to places." Many of these dogs are not trained and because of their non existent or poor training real trained dogs are no longer welcome. #servicedogs
