My grandmother went into a nursing home yesterday.
My mom has a search and rescue dog, and was talking to the manager about bringing our dogs in to see Nana. (Our entire family is big on dogs.) She mentioned to the manager about my poodles and the manager asked if I would be willing to bring them in to see everyone. I was planning on taking Reece with me some days simply because she is always with me, but only to see Nana. She is in a bag so she wouldn't have to be noticed by the other residents. None of my dogs are certified therapy dogs, but all have had obiedence and Allie would make a great therapy dog. She adores my Nana and she used to live with an elderly couple. She really connects with them.
I have heard the toys don't make good therapy dogs because of the squeezing and such that can go on with handicapped patients.
Sorry, I am running away with myself. My question is should I take Allie at the managers request?
