Baxter the Therapy Dog

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Therapy dogs hold a very important role in today’s society, unfortunately I don’t believe that they are being utilized enough.  Therapy dogs can do anything from being there for kids while they learn to read, to fetching balls for patients who are re-learning motor skills, to doing silly tricks to bring a smile to someone’s face, to just BEING there for someone who needs them.

This video that I found yesterday of Baxter, a 19.5 year old therapy dog,  shows how truly important therapy dogs are.  TISSUE ALERT!!

If you think your dog may be cut out to be a therapy dog please contact us and we can let you know about therapy dog classes and testing in the area.
