The Children's Museum - a Must for Every Therapy Dog !



"Delta Society" (our Therapy Dog organization) sent out a request to its members to participate in a presentation at our Children's Museum.  They wanted therapy dogs and their owners to help a veterinarian demonstrate how to be responsible pet owners and to show children how to be good pet owners, so one Saturday Micki and I volunteered to be a part of the program.  The museum is beautiful, and it was a rainy Saturday morning, so there were lots of people there!


First, the veterinarian demonstrated how she listens to a new pet's heart - as you can see, Micki has a good relationship with her 'doctors'.

Then Micki got down on the floor for a little "one-on-one" that was enjoyed by all !!



But through all of this, Micki was calm and collected, and seemed to really enjoy the attention - as you can see, she was really enjoying herself, although she did 'check in' with me occasionally, just to make sure she was getting it right!
