It is your responsibility to protect your own dog. Watch for wheelchairs rolling over long tails. Pay attention to your dog. He will not be as effective if he begins to tire. Give him a break outside for a few minutes if necessary.
Visits usually run about an hour.
Remember You are representing TDTC, Paw-Pals, and your dog breed. In order for the concept of Therapy Dogs to be successful, it depends on the good PR work done by you and your obedience trained dog. Know that the therapy you provide is a much-needed service and can be very rewarding to you. So, set a good example and go and share some love. Paw Pals yearly dues are now due.
