Tumblr User Shares the Unbelievable Antics of Her Family's Autism Support Dog
One minute she is doing her job as an autism support dog, and the next she is getting into the kind of chaos most pet owners would never believe.
The stories shared about her paint a picture of a highly capable service dog with a mischievous streak, and that combination makes every post feel a little more unbelievable than the last. Her antics are funny, surprising, and somehow still completely on brand for a dog with this much personality.
By the time you get to the end, Arwen’s reputation will make perfect sense. Read on.
Tumblr user gallusrostromegalus was onto something when they decided to share their family dog's shenanigans with the Internet:
From the moment Arwen came on the scene, she was a wild card. Still, the family had no clue what they were truly in for.
"THE WATER BILL!" Have you ever seen a dog do this?
Communication is key. Arwen knows what she doesn't want and how to solve her own problems.
There's a typical day, and then there's a not-so-typical day.
But wait, there's more!
Poor Dottie.
The best intentions can be met with insanity when you have a dog like Arwen.
Patience is a virtue.
Sometimes, you accidentally get your dog a mechanical recliner.
Mom is such a good sport, really.
Arwen vs. Charlie: The Epic Battle of the Recliner
This is similar to Leo the Labrador “failed” service dog school, yet keeps healing hearts with random gifts.
Still...
It's time to talk about Brad and Bojangles.
Arwen reached her breaking point with Bo.
Is Arwen a feminist icon? Maybe.
Sometimes, you experience a mixture of pride and embarrassment, and this is definitely one of those situations.
Majestic.
An update everyone was grateful for:
A mystery to this day.
At long last, after all of these shenanigans were shared, some backstory was included that helped bring everything unique about Arwen into perspective.
A smart dog that gets bored equals shenanigans.
So Majestic.
Nomz? Nomz.
A little bit of clever mischief, a little bit of compassion, and love.
Other Tumblr users were quick to reply with enthusiasm.
I mean, it's hard not to appreciate Arwen's antics.
"I thought I knew everything there was to know about dogs, and then this dog comes along..."
It never gets old. It always gets better. YES.
Co-sign.
We can only hope that they never stop sharing stories about Arwen.
