AP went to therapy dog volunteer training, apparently people need to be trained just like dogs. She came home and was bummed out and we had a long talk. I was really excited to start classes so that I could pass my test and become a READ dog. The READ program is where dogs go to school and kids (my very favoritist things) get to read to them. http://www.therapyanimals.org/R.E.A.D.html
Once I passed the test I could go once a week for nine weeks and sit with different kids while they read stories to me. Unfortunately the other requirement is that I would have to have a bath - every week- for nine weeks. Now if you follow my blog you know that there is one thing I really do not like and that is water - especially baths. It takes 2 people to bathe me and I don't make it easy. It's not my fault I just get freaked out. So AP said she wouldn't put me through that and that we would have to look at other options. I'm bummed out that I don't get to meet new kids but I'm very glad I won't be getting a bath every week.

But how would they know? I think I smell pretty and I don't bathe that often. NH says I stink but she doesn't know a good thing when it walks right under her nose!
I love you T-man.
Kaiser and Char say:
That's too bad, Tonka, but we Pyrs aren't supposed to get baths that often. We're special and don't have to be gussied up all the time. I bet Alice is bummed, but she's a good mom not to put you through it -- and your coat will be happier, too!
