Tricia, I love to hear about therapy dogs and Magic is so handsome! I would love to do TD work with one of our dogs some day and I think that Cassie (pyr) might do well with it. She will be 2 next month and we've had her for almost 2 months, so we are working on basic obedience right now. She is a quick study & very smart, but very playful still. We've found that she's a natural as an amateur reading therapy dog (with our son) and she's already helped him a lot, so I'm thinking about it.
Seaherons, good luck with it and please keep us posted. BTW, Cirra is gorgeous!
