This is how it went

About 2 weeks ago I made a post of Lola and I attending a dog therapy class. We also went last week. The first week we went they were on the fifth week of a six week course. This course was held for one hour each week on the same day and same time.

Tonight was the test for certification of a therapy dog and handler in addition to taking the CGC test which was a separate evaluation. We passed both the therapy and CGC test's. I'm really glad that we passed the CGC test because I never brought Lola to any formal training classes and just trained her myself and it tells me that I must have dine it right. Now that she has the CGC I don't think there is a need for obedience classes. At least not the beginner classes. I don't know what they would do in advanced classes and how much more advanced that would be other than what I have trained her on already.

Now all we have to do is wait for all the proper stuff in the mail and then we can start in the therapy work. :D

Congratulations! I am happy for you. I spent a lot of money on various classes for my two dogs. Mainly because I lack confidence in myself to do it on my own. Wish I could've saved the money though! And, as many here know, Lily passed the CGC test last week. I think I will try to get involved with therapy dog work also - when Lily gets a little older.

I know there are a few different outfits that certify for therapy dog. Which one did you go through?
