@KatieB

Thank you so much for this! I wondered how he was doing.

I knew Sully would need some time to be acclimated to his new work. Huge move from a private home on a large ranch to a huge medical facility in a big city. He has a large task ahead of him, hope he will eventually get back to working with one person, but for now he will be going from assignment to assignment fairly quickly.

This can be hard, and I surely send him the Best Of Wishes! ♥️🦴🌟🐕😍

Dog will do just find and perhaps enjoyable cuz many hands will be petting him. No need for ............drama...........animals don't really 'think' like humans. My dog enjoyed time with visiting kids vs just being home with me. (run and chase)

@fthunt

Was your post addressed to me?

If so, a private home on a large private ranch, working with one person, is obviously quite different from a huge hospital in a city, working with many.

Just a fact.

No drama at all.

@Drythe I'm glad I saw this article too - I was wondering how he was doing too.

What got me in the article was the fact that he will get to wear his presidential vest so people will know who he is (by President Bush's request).... Loved that part...

I thought this post was about Captain "Sully" Sullenberger, the airline pilot who miraculously landed on the Hudson River and saved every passenger and crew member. Thankfully, he's not going to the hospital.

But I love canine Sully too!

Glad to see young Sully will be servicing, and reaching out to many, instead of one. He seems to be a beautiful old soul, knowing he can help and heal many. There's nothing in this world that matches the love, loyalty and devotion of a dog.

I was quietly wishing the Bush family would adopt Sully. Dogs are very loyal and love their people. I am sad that he won't be with his family. My heart goes out to Sully.

A wise Man President Bush Was. He knew that Sully was Trained to Serve and what better way was with Wounded Vets. These Wonderful Dogs are in Great Need.
