San Francisco based Dog Trainer, Jasmine Kelem, AKA @thegoldenmal is a trainer and self proclaimed fur mom to Finley, a Golden Retriever and service dog, Stinky, a Belgian Malinois who is now working with the police force, and a little Mali puppy Wasabi who will be trained for protection sports

We chatted about service dogs, how it works, the qualifications, Emotional Support Animals, and flying with a puppy.

We are headed to NY for Thanksgiving so I asked Jasmine to chat with us about how to prepare for the long 6 hour flight.

We covered a lot more ground beyond this! Interview is 1.5 hours

Thank you guys so much for all your questions and thank you Jasmine!!
