therapy visit

Tomorrow will be Skippy's fifth therapy visit. Our first weekday visit. We'll go to a nursing facility in Arlington MA. A group of four dogs will be working, probably about 20 residents. I'll take Skippy out in the morning for his weekly bath and then we'll do the visit in the early afternoon. Afterwards, I've told Skip I'll take him on a nice walk.

Skippy is a lucky dog. I'm sure he is a delight to those he visits. He should take some pictures to share from his gardens, too.

Skippy had a great visit today! There must have been 50 elderly folks (a BIG group) and 5 dogs visiting at a day facility. They were very pleasant to visit with. Skippy was very soft, velvety, shiny and well behaved after his bath. He had fun visiting - no mouthing or other bad behaviors - just a good puppy. He was a bit rough with his good friend Bella (a young standard poodle) on our walk afterwards. They ran and tumbled and chased and barked.... Puppy fun.
