In this episode of Beyond the Curb, we sit down with Janie Heinrich, CEO of Mobility Dog, to break down what accessible travel really looks like in the real world—beyond the buzzwords. From planning and logistics to dignity, safety, and independence, Janie shares practical insight into what makes travel truly accessible for people with mobility challenges. We also dive into how mobility service dogs can be a game-changer—supporting functional independence, reducing barriers, and helping make affordable accessible travel more realistic for disabled travelers. Janie explains how Mobility Dog advances independence through service dogs, empowerment, and education, and why access isn’t just about ramps—it’s about confidence, support, and having the right tools to move through the world. Plus, Janie highlights an important upcoming community event: the Accessibility Resource Fair on May 2, 2026, at Pasadena City Hall – Centennial Square. 🎧 Tune in for a grounded, empowering conversation that connects access, travel, and independence—one curb cut (and paw print) at a time.
