Therapy Dogs at Parkside
I think I mentioned that local organizations and owners worked with Parkside to have therapy dogs in the UW-Parkside Library again. I just processed my set of photos and posted few over on Facebook. There are more on my Flickr page, of course!
One of our visitors was this 126-pound Great Pyrenees named Atticus Finch. This is my kind of dog! When I was last a primary doggy caretaker, it was of a 90-pound Akita, Kuma (of whom there are also photos on my Flickr page). I love big dogs; the bigger the better. Someday I want to have a Newfoundland around. Having Atticus at the library to visit and play with for a while was a real treat!
It's a shame I won't be around next year for my time with the Southeast Wisconsin dogs and their owners. Maybe there'll be a dog program at Syracuse University!
