God Bless you, I'm so glad there's people like you in this world. sometimes it seems like theres no relief, but then people like you come through the door and make everything better. Keep up the good work, I know you've brightened my day and I'm sure lots of others. You're such an angel.

The older people do love it. I'm in southern Indiana and i took bobo to nurseing home. then they decided to have a dog show every year the older ones are so happy to see then. Keep up the good work God will richly bless you. Some of them have nothing to smile about. I have bobo in training now thought it might be fun.

I can see this was truly a labor of love for you. So many people in nursing homes
miss their dogs so much and don't even realize how nice it is until they have one
in their laps again. I have heard of depressed people who haven't spoken in ages
that start talking after a visit like this. Lovely pic of your Mother and Chance.
Good Job Chance!!

My mom was in a nursing home for 3 years due to a stroke that left her unable to walk. Pet Day was one of the events the residents looked forward to so much! And the animals always enjoyed it too! This is a wonderful to do (and I think you've given Bubbles and me an idea!)

Thanks for posting that delightful story!

Fantastic! You are so wonderful Sylvan. Your babies and these lovely ladies are beautiful as well.

the nursing home that my mom was in had a couple of dogs living there. This was in the alzheimers unit so everyone thought the dog belonged to themselves. I took buckeye in to see mom one time. she was trying to recover from a broken hip surgery so she was in a lot of pain. when i held buckeye up for her to pet, she grabbed his ears and tried to pull them off. so i didn't try to use him for therapy again.

I do 24 hour care 3 days a week for an elderly gentleman in his home and I bring Chewy. He just loves her, and Chewy loves him, as well. They always look forward to seeing each other. And, when my mom was in a nursing home, before her passing, I used to being Chewy all of the time.
Everybody loved her. And vive versa, of course. She could easily be a service dog. She loves everybody. Wherever I bring her, she goes up to people and wants them to pet her. A couple of weeks ago, my elderly gent that I take care of had a sort of a family reunion at his house. So, here I was, surrounded by all of these old people, (and I'm no spring chicken at 62!!), and Chewy was just loving it. I was busy serving them food and drinks, and she was just going around being her friendly old self. Except for this one old mean man...kept saying..."get out of my way, dog, before I kick you". Oooh...I was just biting my tongue. He kept saying mean things to her, and she just kept going up to him and being nice. I was just seething. Except Chewy knew something I knew, but forgot. Just keep being nice to everyone. Well, her goodness paid off. He finanlly said...'Well, this is some dog". No wonder everyone likes her". So, there's a lesson there for us all.

Stacy, that second picture is precious! And your mom is beautiful! That is so nice of you to bring the babies for a visit. Yorkies definitely have a way a bringing a smile to your face!
