Photo Shoot at Bayou Bend, Museum of Fine Arts Houston

I am a docent at Bayou Bend, which is the home for American Decorative Arts for the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston.

A short time ago one of the Museum's guests came with her Guide Dog. It is not something we encounter often at Bayou Bend.

They know that I Puppy Raise a Guide Dog in Training because Watson has accompanied me to lectures.

When they asked me if I could write an article about Service Dogs I was very happy to do this, because part of my role as a Puppy Raiser is to help educate the public about Guide Dogs and the important role they fulfill.




Every good article needs photos to tell the story.

Watson and I enjoyed a photoshoot in the historic Bayou Bend mansion.

I will say, as good as she is, I was still nervous with her around precious objects of art.

And I will also say, I did let out a sigh of relief that Watson was the perfect Guide Dog Puppy and we left everything exactly as we found it!

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.
