Gumbo's Beloved Friend

Meet Gumbo, an 8-year-old golden retriever lab mix who is not just a loyal service dog but also a devoted friend to his plush toy named Shrimp.

The Bond with Shrimp

Back in 2017, Gumbo's human, Hana, brought home Shrimp from IKEA. Initially not meant for Gumbo, it was love at first sight as Gumbo instantly bonded with Shrimp.

Shrimp Becomes Gumbo's Own

No matter where Shrimp was placed, Gumbo would always carry him around and snuggle with him. Eventually, Hana decided that Shrimp rightfully belonged to Gumbo, solidifying their special bond.

Inseparable Duo

Wherever Hana and her husband go, Gumbo and Shrimp are right by their side, sharing matching pajamas and even being a part of the family's significant moments like their wedding day.

The Forgotten Friend

During a trip, Shrimp was accidentally left behind an hour and a half away from the trailhead. Realizing the oversight, Hana and her family hurried back, only to find that someone had kindly left Shrimp at the trailhead sign for them.

Heartwarming Reunion

Gumbo was overjoyed to be reunited with his favorite toy, and since then, Shrimp hasn't been left behind again, a testament to the inseparable bond between Gumbo and Shrimp.
