Therapy Dog?

[GoldenRetrLuver]

That's great you're considering it Liana!

In a few months or so, I'm *hoping* Daisy can get her CGC (Canine Good Citizen), so she can go around to hospitals, nursing homes, and my aunt works with disabled kids, and Daisy would be great with them. I just want to make sure she's really ready. People come up to me all the time and tell me what a well behaved dog she is, and she's VERY social! The dog has to get it's CGC with most organizations if you want to participate. It basically shows your dog is trained, you can handle him/her, and your dog is friendly and non aggressive.
