Service dog melts hearts of hockey fans all over
P.K. Subban had to share the spotlight from his Nashville Predators debut Friday with a service dog.
The dog had a front-row seat -- above an ad for Pedigree dog food no less -- for Nashville's 3-2 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks.
Rinksidereport.com's Jim Diamond provide some details on Annie's appearance.
The owner’s name is Josh Ray, and his furry friend is an adorable Yellow Labrador Retriever named Annie. In addition to being cute, Annie is Ray’s service dog.
The game was Annie’s first hockey contest, and Ray said that she handled the noise and excitement like a champ. Service dogs are trained to handle all kinds of different circumstances, and with more than 17,000 yelling fans, loud music, and goal horns Annie just took it all in stride. ...
Oh, and conspiracy theorists, Josh and Annie were not planted there by Pedigree, it was just a crazy coincidence.
Here is Annie's graduation photo.
I wasn’t trying to do this, but it looks like I caught a service dog watching Josi carry the puck up ice. And over the Pedigree sign too. pic.twitter.com/bic60RGmTC
