Myles the Therapy Dog: Another Day In Paradise
Another incredible day! We had a huge group of people mostly on the floor. Everyone rolled around with Myles. Everyone got covered in dog slobber and no one cared. Myles is so cute I can hardly stand it.
First he “notifies” me when it is time to leave for the behavioral health unit at the hospital. We have been going to this hospital for over 4 years. It is his FAVORITE place in the universe. We show up at 3:30pm on Fridays regardless of a holiday. At about 3pm Myles becomes increasingly anxious and will park himself in front of me. Being the butler as we call him (because he is so polite) he simply stares at me and waits for me to notice and then looks at the door. This is my cue to put the laptop down and get his therapy dog vest on him.
He instantly turns into “Myles at work”. He is very focused. Typically he stretches out in the car but not on Fridays and not when it is time to work. He sits straight up and monitors the road on the way to the hospital parking lot.
