Therapy Dog


God has blessed me with a beautiful dog, named Suzy. She is a white Siberian Husky with bright blue eyes. When I hug her she feels so soft, that it’s hard for me to stop sometimes. I have taught her to say I love you (RiRuROO) in Scooby Doo language.
She is such a joy to be around that I thought we could share her with other people. People who are sick or those who are lonely. I am on a mission to transform Suzy into a therapy dog. The first thing we have to do is teach her basic obedience, how to sit, stay and come on command. Suzy is a free spirit, she does not like rules. So teaching her to obey my commands will be a great adventure and a challenge. In the coming days we are going to transform Suzy.
I am trying to train Suzy to sit. We give her a treat if she sits. It is coming very slow, but it's coming together. She is going to be a goob therapy dog. I did it again today it took me 20 times to say it before she would sit.
