Sully is an older golden retriever service dog. He is said to have completed his formative training at Disney World in Florida. It is also his favorite place to visit, so his family brings him back yearly on his birthday. Most service dogs work for about seven to ten years. If Sully was training 13 years ago, then he is likely retired or very near retirement. We’re glad he is getting to live his best life. You can watch the video here!
