I is a therapy dog ping.

One of my Jack Russels is a Certified Therapy Dog with Faithful Paws Therapy Group in Houston. We do this and people love it. We go to convalescent homes where people are stuck for weeks or months while recovering. My dogs name is Hairy and he had to pass some test but required no training, he is a natural. We have a visit planned for this afternoon.

Pincher, LOL. It’s Pinscher.

I have had a Doberman for about a year now, and probably every dog I ever own from now on will be a Doberman. My dog is smart. She learns what she is being taught in two tries. Dobermans are not tje one-person dogs that shepherds are. They are loyal to whichever family member they are with. True family dogs.

Is Odhinn looking for a “girlfriend” ping?

I wanted to do this with my Greyhounds.

But I was told that I have to go thru all sorts of licensing, certifications, training, blah blah blah.

Just like with everything else, the government wants to be in control of it.

My dogs need no training. They are sweet and docile (see my profile).

So I said forget it.

Moon said dog training requires a consistent commitment of 15-30 minutes a day.

LOL. Just freaking LOL!
