I’m Still Here…And I’m Not Going Away

It’s been a while since I’ve given everyone a real update, and I think it’s time. This fight has been exhausting. There have been setbacks, closed doors, unanswered questions, and plenty of moments when it has felt like the easiest thing for everyone involved would be for me to get tired, get quiet, and disappear. I’m not going to. I’m still here. I’m still asking questions. I’m still documenting what happened. I’m still advocating for accountability, for service dog protections, and for Tiny’s Bill. There have absolutely been days when I’ve wondered how much more I have in me. But every time I look at Tiny, every time someone shares our story, signs this petition, or tells me that what we’re doing matters, I remember why I started. This was never only about me and Tiny. It’s about the next disabled handler who shouldn’t have to be terrified that their service dog could be taken, mishandled, or treated as though their partnership doesn’t matter. It’s about making sure there are protections and accountability when those rights are ignored. And it’s about refusing to accept that the people with the least power should simply stay quiet when something isn’t right. So no, things haven’t been easy. And no, I haven’t gotten every answer or every bit of accountability I’ve fought for. But I’m still pushing forward. Tiny’s Bill is still alive. This petition is still here. And so am I. Thank you to every single person who has stayed beside us, shared this petition, signed it, followed Tiny’s story, or simply reminded me that this fight matters. We’re not done. - Joce & Tiny 🐾🩷 Please keep sharing and encouraging others to sign: https://c.org/y9pM6x4rXh
