HI everyone,
Mommy took me to the OPICA clinic a week ago. I just wanted to tell you that it is not always a "perfect" match or experience. That particular day two things happened: 1. a lady there had a temper tantrum and was banging her fists loudly on the coffee table. She scared me and had to be taken aside in another room to calm her down. 2. I sat with a man I normally like and when I saw my mommy walk away, even though she was truly just sitting on a couch, I got so insecure, I leapt off his lap and ran to her and stayed by my side!
I guess I express this so as to show you people considering allowing your dog to be a therapy dog to "expect the unexpected"! Not all days go perfectly and not all days will your dog be in the mood to entertain others! This is a major realization! Don't pressure yourself! Just know that people, patients, kids you entertain or just have a dog play with are not always in the mood to do so!
We're going again in a week or so and I"m sure we'll be "raring to go"!
All is well! It's just part of my job as an angel therapy dog and I take this job seriously!
xoxo
Rocky the angel therapy dog!
