   I am starting Dog therapy school with my Goldendoodle next week with hopes that we both succeed and he is a therapy dog. My concern is putting the dog in danger… are these dogs ever put with violent patients or patients that have diseases that are contagious to dogs? Maybe I will learn all about this in Therapy school.

   Back in the day I was in ICU then Rehab after back surgery. The recovery was lengthy and rough. I remember the visit I had by "Bodie" during my rehab stay. It was a particularly bad day and he came running in and jumped up on my bed. Being a huge animal lover and missing my own pets at home, much less my family Bodie made my day!! He gave me the love and snuggles and kisses I needed to assist in my recovery. It is a Great Program! Kuddos to all involved 🙂
