Harvie and I have spent the better part of 2 years in training, preparing to be a Therapy Dog Team. We are so excited to announce that WE MADE IT!
My friend and trainer Susan Geib is also certified as a handler. We will be working together as “Team Harvie.”
We are very excited to be volunteering at Vogel Alcove, a school for homeless children, where we can play and entertain the children and staff.
Another volunteer opportunity that fits us is, Our Friends Place, an Alzheimer’s daycare in Richardson. In this environment the clients sit in a circle in one big room. We go person to person for hugs and petting then we get in the middle of the circle and perform tricks.
We love this new and rewarding ministry, and we look forward to years of being a Therapy Dog Team.
