Career Day

Our local Elementary School had a career day today. I took Emma as a visual aid. Despite to day being poorly run (4 min. each for groups of 2-6 from 9am to 12 pm), Emma did wonderful.I forgot to take her in yesterday for a bath so I sprayed her with doggy cologne, brushed her well and took hand sanitiser for any of the kids that petted her to use. Of course all 100+ students petted, hugged, and rolled on the floor with her. The nurse sharing the same room requested she not be in with the dog next year because her plastic baby doll wasn't getting the same attention.

  1. Poorly run -- I agree. A new group every 4 min over a 3 hour period. I'm exhausted thinking about it. Can't imagine that was affective.
    Emma is a very sweet dog.

  2. Oh -- and I'm glad I didn't have to compete with you. My family doesn't understand what I do. I would not want to explain it to a middle schooler with a dog in the same room...
