Ever since I was a child I’ve had two loves in my life; photography and dogs. I volunteer with my border terrier, Basil at Maine Medical Center. Even during the very busy wedding season, I find time to visit patients a couple of times a month, it really puts things into perspective. Being a therapy dog volunteer […]
Danielle - I am in Bangor & would love to get into a therapy dog program. But I just don’t know where to start. I love also photography and dogs. Plus I am a heart patient. So I know how great it is to see a dog when your sick. I would just love to bring that joy to someone. I didn’t know if you could help me with, where to start this. I have a Jack Russel & she is very loving but I don’t know if she has what it takes to do this work. She just barks a lot when she hears stuff. I think I could train her on some of it but I don’t really know how to go about it. I have a trainer I have worked with but she doesn’t have the time to get into what I really need from her.
I am in Portland a lot at MMC so maybe someday I will see you & your dog there 🙂
Thank you
Danielle
