Subject: [Chihuahuas] New Member-therapy chi's
Hi, Everyone!
At present, I own two fabulous little male Chihuahuas! The first is named
PedroMiguel and he is 2 1/2. He (and I) have attended and graduated from a
great number of training courses and are now a fully certified therapy dog
team (The instructor didn't think a chi could do it!". PedroMiguel is,
therefore, a working dog and as such, goes to school with me for a very
special project I designed and now run. That project is the Paws For
Literacy Club(trademark). This club is strongly based in the research of
three separate fields, education, animal science, and law related education.
It is open to all first graders at my school. It is the goal of the club to
improve the reading skills of the first graders who attend while addressing
social issues through the careful selection of the grade level appropriate
books being presented. My second chi is JuanCarlos and he is a four month
old rescue that I flew to Missouri to pick up this past July. He was being
sold at an auction from a puppymill. I am hoping that he too will
complete therapy dog training and take his place next to his big brother!
As you can probably tell, I love the training end!
Elizabeth
