Malibu's Therapy Sessions

[Eva]

So in the photo show you will see some new friends Mali has made at a Seniors Assisted living facility. This was her second visit and we finally brought out the infamous tennis ball and it was all uphill from there. Everyone was waiting for their turn to throw the ball and Malibu faithfully brought it back to every person, and then with some direction I would show her who to bring it to next so everyone could have their chance to play. She was playing fetch for over an hour and made quite an impression. Poor girl though, it was quite hot in there and she had to take a few watering breaks, even I was sweating in there. Our next session will be outdoors so it will be more tolerable for both of us! lol

Hi My Big Honey Girl,

What a naughty aunti that iIdidn't when Miss Malibu Barbie Dahl's Birthday is. I'm sure her mommy & daddy made it quiet a special day for a special "Doodle". I really think poor Tasha has the doggy form of Alzheimer's, I'm going to see if our vet will get her started on some med's that can slow the progression. So if anyone else out there has delt with this before any advice is welcome-Love aunti Jeanmarie

Yay Malibu! I just know those sweet little old people were grinning from ear to ear playing with her and watching her antics. Isn't that the best feeling in the world? I used to bring my standard poodle, Kira, to my grandmother's assisted living home and it was such a win-win-win!!! The elderly ladies and gentlemen were always so happy to see her and Kira LOVED all the attention, and I just got the nicest feeling of warmth and pride and happiness whenever we'd visit. I'm hoping to curb some of Mazie doodle's more hyper behaviors so we can start visiting there again. My beloved Grandmother is gone, but after seeing the impression Kira made on all the other folks, I am anxious to go back and visit! Malibu is sooooo cute!

Great story! I'm hoping to visit places like this with Halas some day.

Yes she is Adina! I'm sooo proud of her, and she just struts and knows she's being cute and loved. What a ham. Ugh oh, I'm having a theme here of pigs. (she was in the mud water basking the other day and I said soon she is going to start "oinking" lol. You are the bomb on this site keeping it going and welcoming others, and just wanted to let you know your doing a fantastic job. (yes, probably a labor of love)... I was trying to put up a video of her at therapy but it came up black and said was embedded. how do you unbed the video's?
