My First Day Working

Today when mom woke me up, she said she had something special planned. She didn't have to go to work, & she was going to take me to visit some very special people. Today I started working as a therapy dog. (Thats why I had to have a bath last night).
I'm all ready to go. I have on my working collar, mom brushed my fur & teeth. (I can't get that close to people with dog breath, can I)?

This is where I work, on the 3rd floor.
I met many nice people who gave me lots of pets & snuggles. I had a great time getting all that attention and accepting all that attention put smiles on many faces today. I can't wait to go back next Saturday.


Love Ruby

WOOOOHOOOOO!!!!

You are going to make sooooo many people soooo very happy! The work of a therapy dog is amazing to witness. I am so happy for you I can't stop wagging my tail!

You look just goreous after your bath. With as cute as you are, I bet no one would even notice if you had doggy breath!

I hope your back is feeling better.

Oh Ruby,

We are so proud of you!! My sister Samantha used to go with the Mommy to the nursing home when she took communion to the residents but they did have therapy dogs then...they just liked Samantha because she was so sweet.

Your Mommy must be very proud of you becuase we sure are.

Love ya lots....Mona

My mom had high hopes of me doing this someday! But I'm a submissive pee-er :( Maybe someday I'll grow out of it and be able to!

P.S. Hope you had fun on your first therapy visit!
