This Service Dog's Disneyland Trip Will Melt Your Heart!

Service dog in-training Elijah had the time of his life at Disneyland in Anaheim, California! Videos and photos posted by his foster mom Ashley Wilt are melting hearts up and down the west coast. 

Elijah is currently going through the intense process of behavioral training in hopes of one day working with a veteran, special needs citizen, or individual with hearing / mobility challenges. Attending an active, densely populated location like Disneyland provides Elijah the perfect opportunity to practice is new abilities!

This trip to the 'Happiest Place on Earth' marks the end of Elijah's time with Ashley, as he's become ready to move on to the next step of his training. 

Elijah instantly felt at home with Cinderella as obvious in the video above! Watch as he runs into her arms and gets greeted with snuggles and rubs. 

Elijah also made best friends with Winnie The Pooh and Pluto! You know Elijah's gotta be excelling at his training too, because he sat still long enough for an entire portrait to be painted.
