Therapy Dog Field Trip to Ginger Man

This is our second field trip with our Therapy Dog class!  Thanks goes to the "Ginger Man" for welcoming us to their business!  The dogs did great and we were invited back.  It was a great field trip because the dogs were exposed to lots of people, a loud speaker, and they had to have good manners while people were eating.  The dogs noticed EVERYTHING, even the flicker of the "Ginger Man" sign coming on!  One of the dogs was a little nervous about the sign so every time she looked we clicked and treated and before too long the sign was no big deal!  It was really nice to be able to take the dogs out to a public place and enjoy the evening together!

Everyone is having fun, even though someone is talking over a loud speaker!  Deke and Debbie are still working well together!

Taking a walk around the patio in and out of the crowd, Izzy is still pretty relaxed.

Time to work on "Leave It", THAT is a serious temptation!
