I am sure you, as I have seen many service dogs as we travel about the country. I am always fascinated by the patience and attentiveness of these well disciplined animals. Along a similar animal discipline is the therapy dog. One of our granddaughters had a trained therapy dog that she frequently took to nursing homes and hospitals. People, especially the elderly were excited to engage with the pup. Of course, I'm partial to dogs due to a lifetime of ownership of mixed-breeds and purebreds.
Another granddaughter recently moved into a college dormitory, which accommodates four female individuals. One of her roommates has reason to have a therapy animal. The animal is NOT a Dog, not a Cat, not a Parakeet but a Porcupine...that's right a Porcupine!
Gives a new attitude about 'cuddling,' eh?
