I know what you mean as far as how hard it is to get a service dog ready to go out, everytime you go out. While I do not have a disability I did raise a service dog for Paws With a Cause. I helped her through her first year and taught her a lot of stuff, her name was Breeze and she was a black Lab. I was constantly washing her or clipping her nails or washing her vest. Even if she was all pretty and clean I still wiped her down with baby wipes before leaving the house. When she was little I had to carry a back pack with me every time we went out because a little puppy sometiems has accidents and trust me, a service dog in training pooping in the middle of the grocery store is no fun, expessially when you are not prepared!! LOL.

Here are two pics of my silly girl, god I miss her:





Sheena looks gorgeous and you deserve a hug for taking such wonderful care of her! I hope you are feeling better soon, sorry to ramble.
