About Me and lacey

Linda Smith is an Orlando, Florida native growing up just blocks from downtown's Lake Eola Park. She is married, has a daughter, grandson, sister, and brother, and many cousins near-by.

After a career that expands more than 40 years as a Tax Professional, Enrolled Agent, Federally Authorized Tax Practitioner, and a Florida Supreme Court Certified Mediator, Linda is enjoying semi-retirement volunteering with Lacey.

For many years Linda has combined her love for dogs with her support and sponsorship of guide dogs for the blind and charities that raise and train all types of assistance dogs. After rescuing Lacey and recognizing her intelligence, sensitivity, and social nature, it seemed only natural to enroll her for training as a Therapy Dog. So began the "Lacey Book Series." Linda hopes that sharing some of Lacey's stories will promote the Therapy Dog's contributions and unique talents.
