Our furry friends love to make new friends and hear great stories! This month our visitors will come ready to make monster art with you! Can you turn a pawprint into a monster?
Practice your reading skills by reading aloud to our doggie pals. Bring a book from home or read one of ours! This is a great way for children to practice their literacy skills.
Our friends are trained at Gold Star Dog Training. For some information about therapy dogs and what they do, click here.
