Residents of Summerville, Ga., sometimes shop at the local Wal-Mart twice in one day, but it’s not because they forgot anything the first time. They just want a second chance to visit Finn, the black Labrador retriever service dog who works at the store with owner Spann Cordle.
Cordle has cerebral palsy and uses a wheelchair daily. Initially a store greeter, he acquired the service dog a few months after being hired. Managers welcomed Finn to the team, if not the payroll.
