Ginger subs for Banshee at pet therapy Dec.1


When I returned from Saluda to pick up Banshee and go to pet therapy, Banshee, Snoopy and DB got into an altercation over space issues (who's first when i get out of the car.) Because  Banshee was still wrought up, decided to take Ginger to pet therapy at Azalea Woods and Croft House.... she did very well. Very loving, licked Mr. Frank and several other residents in the face, didn't paw anyone (this is my main concern with using Ginger to visit the elderly, she still hasn't completely gotten over her habit of pawing at you to get your attention, and it is too easy to break the skin on the elderly....) Other than that, she does well. For some reason, she doesnt paw at children, just stands there and lets them love on her (and licks them and smells them:-)  so I generally take her to childen events. Afterwards, we went to Croft House ... because we were late, only 1 resident had waited outside for us. Afterwards, went to SuperPetz (where Ginger was a big hit with a yippy little yorkie (whose owner said he usually hated other dogs) and then to the chiropractor (where I had to wait awhile, so walked Ginger in the big fenced yard behind the building ... full of squirrels!) Returned home satisfied with a 'job well done'
