She further reported, in the comments sections, “Justin is a six-year-old yellow lab/golden retriever mix that Grace received from @canineorg. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in education, Magna Cum Laude, and wants to teach elementary education and special education.” .”

According to NJ.com, the service dog is six years old, which is unusual for a college graduation carrier. Service dogs are highly trained animals that help people with disabilities or specific medical conditions perform tasks and mitigate the challenges they face in their daily lives.
These dogs are specifically trained to meet the unique needs of their handlers and provide essential support and assistance.
Seton Hall alumni and current students congratulated Justin and Mariani on Twitter, with some saying Justin must have been “so proud” of Mariani and others calling the clip a “wonderful moment”.
