A Connecticut service dog has been laid off because of budget problems. Publicly funded groups definitely need to cut back so this is understandable as long as the dog has a great life ahead of him. We were pleased to see in the article that his officer in charge will be taking him home to be part of his family. Would be better if he could still work, but it sounds like he will have a nice life ahead of him. Thanks for your service Paro!
