Meet Jim & Jean's Service Dog, Zorro...
Zorro became a service dog when he was only 23 months old. Jim and Jean travel the world over with this special dog. Zorro even goes on cruise ships and is treated quite special as a certified service dog. Jim just told me that this year's trips included a six weeks tour of England, Wales, and Scotland (plus 2 weeks of sailing to and from),a two weeks cruise to Alaska. Click on the video to see some of his amazing accomplishments.
