2019-03-12 06:25:30 PM catherinemello i just adopted a puppy this past week, brought him into work and he was such a good boy. the residents absolutely loved him. i might make him a therapy dog and bring him to work with me everyday
2019-03-12 06:25:31 PM marinlott there are dog therapy networks. they should have training and the handler too
2019-03-12 06:25:34 PM kaylenbaringer I used to dye my dogs hair with food coloring when I was in highschool

2019-03-12 06:25:43 PM kathyhughes I don't know why they did it....I just thought I would add that and you can ask your residents if they remember
