you don't have to read this!
there was a therapy dog petting session at my school, for all the stressed out kids freaked abt finals [like myself] and it was like. it was good!
well i mean it was bad at first?? i was a nervous wreck, i'm seriously a socially anxious person idk if you can tell? i get shaky and i dissociate and i can hardly walk up to a group of people without feeling like. idk im intruding...
but anyways it was all like that and i was sitting there shaking like a leaf right beside these ppl who just wanted to pet dogs AND I MEAN SO DID I but i was like alone and afraid yk? if i have friends im fine! but i didn't have friends there with me. so yeah. and im staring at the dogs like what do i do? what are dogs? i don't know i can't just go up in the middle and start petting them the hands are already in the good petting place what if they brush against mine? then id have to go wash my hands? no thank you man!
but yeah eventually they left and one came up and was just sitting in front of me! and i was like omg this is the best thing ever actually. petting this lil french bulldog. sweetest thing. im so glad i signed up for this. but then they left and i was like aw crap. idk what to do. but the crowds were all gone and it was just this one person petting the dog so i got treats for them and pet the dogs! and it was great! idk it was a breakthrough! i dont just go up to people like that, cool thing, a nice progress! i'm proud of me, really
but yeah there was this one guy came up to us as we were petting two SEPARATE dogs so i didn't get hand cooties, and he was like are these your guyses therapy dogs?? and i was like no oh no defo not but like i wished it was. idk these dogs kinda helped me make an acquaintance! i was shaking at the start but completely relaxed just chilling by the end. like oh if this is what a trained dog can do for me then id love to have one actually! and it's just something i've been thinking about for awhile, so maybe once i move out id like to try and train a dog like that, yanno? it was nice to just have the experience before i made a move! but yeah i thought that was neat!
tl;dr i met therapy dogs and they did what they're supposed to and now i wish i had one

Went into class this morning thinking it was gonna be another shitty day with finals, and my professor said "Oh, hey, there's gonna be dogs today!"
At the start of the fall semester, there was a day where therapy dogs were on campus and you could go hang out with them for however long they were there. There were 3 then. When I went today, there were 8!!
Absolutely wonderful day when I get to meet new dogs!!

This is Cody!
Tumblr media
Or Mister Cody Beansworth, according to his AKC Partners paperwork 🧐
He’s a one year old (august 2022) rescued pitbull mix and he’s just beginning his training to become a Therapy Dog. He has a lot to learn, but he’s so gentle and sweet, he’ll get there!
I’ve made an instagram for him to document his journey if anyone is interested in following ^-^

/gen question to anyone with a therapy dog. Are they allowed in stores if they're not marked with vests/leashes etc as I just had a rather rude customers in with a Shihtzu and when I asked her to tie the dog up outside (I work in a very small convenience store and policy is guide dogs only) she huffed and said "oh she's a licensed therapy dog". The dog was only wearing a winter coat and kept sniffing at things/other customers.
I asked her if she could at least carry the dog as we can't have animals in the store (we have a small in store bakery and animal dander is a big no, plus I know other animals can affect service dogs) and she scoffed and said "no she doesn't need to be carried".

What is a service dog?
There can be confusion for many people on what is a service dog and even more the difference between another couple of terms related to dogs, like a therapy dog and an emotional support dog. Regardless of the confusion there are distinct differences that I want to discuss here. A Service Dog is a dog that is trained to perform a specific task for an individual who has a disability. Service dogs…

Where Healthcare Meets Las Vegas Glitz
Can AI Save Healthcare? HLTH Conference Explores the Possibilities A Physician’s Take on HLTH 2023 October has been and still is the “busy” conference season. Some might consider this the second year of a return to the conference activity post-pandemic but even last year things were still a little muted and not quite there. This year conferences have come roaring back and HLTH was no exception…
