of my dogs as a Christmas Card.  Since then it has become one
of my favorite annual traditions..... 
There is a special page on the website link below for "Christmas Cards" that shows the photos of all cards used over the years.  ~

Therapy Dog Testing for Caning Comfort of Canada

On Saturday we participated in and evaluated dogs for the Therpay dog program for CANINE COMFORT OF CANADA at the Loyalist Veterinary Clinic in Belleville.

It was a terrific experience and I'm very excited to be asked to be an evaluator for their program ! 

The testing was extensive and I was very impressed with the caliber and temperament of the dogs that passed and the kind and caring owners that want to share them with others  !

Hardy has passed the first phase of this testing and now we will go on to the supervised visits and monitoring before he officially earns his Canine Comfort Bandanna :) 

We will also be offering a Therapy Dog Prep Class taught with Peggi Dugas, the exceutive director for Canine Comfort at Cold Creek Shepherds starting on January 18th. Testing will be offered for those interested for Therapy Dog or Canine Good Neighbour.  If anyone is interested in participating in the class, sign up early since we are expecting lots of interest in the course !
