Snuggle deliveries (and other dog-related stories to give you a smile this holiday weekend).
First up ... the local human society will now, for a fee of $150, come to your place of employment and allow employees to snuggle with dogs and cats for an hour to relieve stress and to boost company morale. Sadly, my company is mostly remote and likely won't pay to send them to *my* home for an hour for that fee, but maybe we can work something out?
Second up ... that same humane society runs *another* program, called Wags & Tales, which sends dogs to libraries so little kids who struggle with reading can practice reading out loud to them to build confidence (seeing as how the puppies aren't about to judge or correct them). I know that there are *all* kinds of therapy animals, but this one sounded like the most creative one yet.
Third up ... not from this county, but from the other coast in Florida ... and not so much a feel good story as a cautionary tale ... but Tampa says that the dog flu is on the rise this year ... so consider you and your furry friends forewarned.
And with that ... from me and mine to you and yours ... go have a happy holiday!
