Pet therapy









We had a visit from Labrador retriever Molly this week and her great handler, Lisa. Molly is trained to offer pet therapy, which as far as I can tell means letting little kids do anything they please without getting annoyed.














Ella covered Molly's head with a towel to play peek-a-boo, piled toys on top of Molly, and put Mardis Gras beads around her neck, all with her left hand. She also fed Molly treats, took her for a walk around the apartment, and brushed her, so I guess there was something in it for Molly. Molly came to us through a non-profit group called Hand-in-Paw. She and Lisa were real professionals and a major bright spot in our program here.

Thanks to Lisa and Molly for a very fun morning!
