Reading to Dogs

Studies have shown that reading to dogs is beneficial for both the readers and the dogs.  Readers improve their comprehension and pronunciation skills and the dogs improve their patience and calm behavior skills.  This is especially important for the WOOF (We Offer Our Friends) Therapy Dogs!

Come and spend some time reading aloud to Crosby, Cramer, and their friends!  Join us for this friendly, furry, fun event!
