What would be involved with Zeus becoming a therapy dog? I know absolutely zilch about it.
My husband took Zeus to Petco this morning. There was a small group of disabled children in wheelchairs who all asked to pet Zeus. My husband said yes, but kept a good hold of Zeus. After all, Zeus had never seen wheelchairs before, and he can sometimes let the "killer tongue" loose on children. Well, Zeus just walked up to each child, gently laid his head in each lap, and let them love him to death. The adults with the children loved Zeus, and said that we should see about making him a therapy dog.
Thoughts/suggestions?
