A new therapy dog here!!

Charm has proudly joined the ranks of many hard working dogs here on the forum. We successfully passed our Pet Partners(formerly Delta) evaluation this afternoon :clappurple: :clappurple:

I tried not to be nervous so as not to make her tense. The metal dog dish hitting the floor behind her and the offered treat were two scenerios that she passed with flying colors :high5:
And I was worried :roll:

Now, to mail the paperwork tomorrow. Pet Partners is processing packets submitted two weeks ago, so hopefully will get our official badges, etc soon :banana:

So proud of my girl :wag:

Congrats to you both!! Yay Brenda and Charm!!

I hope they are speedy on your paperwork and you 2 can be out visiting soon. Is there a local group for you to join, or do you need to find sites to visit independently?

Thanks everyone!! We are looking forward to beginning.

Dawn, the evaluator wasn't local and did not specify a particular group. She indicated that libraries and VA hospitals were particularly needy in her area. I do know that there are therapy volunteers in several local settings. If not in place, maybe could begin a local group. The benefits of their experience would be helpful.

Congratulation....Charm AND Brenda!!!!!

I know how hard it is to pass tests, worrying about your pup ANd your own jitters,,,sounds like you both aced it!!!!

Thank you. Charm is 2.7 yrs now, time flies 8O We have always had that goal for us, but it took awhile for her "puppyness " to settle. The test was like the canine good citizen plus a few extra evaluations. We began to review and tweak in January. She could have taken it sooner but evaluators are scarce in our area. So very proud of her :roses:
