Cora is registered with Pet Partners as a Therapy Dog and sometimes that means working outside the norm. This past week we took a fun trip to the Zoo and talked with 25 8th grade students that are interested in veterinary medicine. Dr Molander from Banfield Vet Clinic was there to educate the young people on what it takes to be a Vet and used Cora a a model for examining an animal. Cora was a rock star throughout the exam and even stood still for the eager students to listen with their stethoscopes to her heartbeat! Add another job description to what a therapy dog does. In this case, Cora became a teacher to these young people, who where eager to learn about the training and work that a Therapy Dog undertakes.
