150815When I took my German Shepherd Therapy Dog Diesel to visit the the Alzheimers unit in nursing homes, they would laugh at me because they always remembered my name and Diesels name but ... I couldn't remember theirs.
DIESEL was a pro. He knew exactly what to do. Every Wednesday he looked forward to visiting. He enjoyed visiting them just as much as they loved visits from him.
They'd hug and choke him, pull his ears, poke his eyes, run over his feet with wheelchairs, but he still dearly loved those people. I will never ever forget my hero Diesel.
CUTE because one lady always saved the cookies her daughter baked her so she could give them to Diesel.
Her daughter found out then began baking cookies just for Diesel.
BTW - almost ALL the residents of nursing homes tend to be forgotten and neglected. An occasional visit does wonders for them. Try it, you'll like it.
