Thank you for your kind wishes. I am SO EXCITED! I just signed Kipper and me up for a four hour introduction class for therapy dogs. At the end of the course, they will test him and if he can pass, he will be a certified puppy therapy dog. It is through an organization called Project Canine, endorsed by the AKC as qualified therapy dog trainers/certification. They just happened to have a class this Saturday, so I hope it isn't too late to get into it. I paid and registered, so hopefully it will all work out. I will take my phone and can take pictures, if we get to attend! I wish you well in your pursuit, as well. I think these beautiful, loving little dogs are perfect for the job!
