Came across this article on Mothership today about Therapy Dogs Singapore: https://mothership.sg/2023/11/therapy-dog-bobbi/?fbclid=IwAR33hfIiww21CFw1KmnaSSVD9XC_dE5EhshybGDEgxps2NIxpoKiws_QoFo_aem_AZdM_Yhtx0Bk-hU0cYyAYBGxxPOPn86SRzITtg9ppPuKG50OYP6ZSc0s6Tba7M5wslk
Did you know that back in the day, Moon was also a therapy dog? We used to take her to Bishan Home for the Intellectually Disabled (BHID) where she will play the role of a therapy dog to the residents.
She was really good with humans and would allow them to walk, pet and carry her. I remember one incident vividly where one of the residents arched her hind leg backwards at an awkward angle (not on purpose) but she did not even yelp or bark. Thankfully, we were close by and got the resident to release her.
Moon was truly the goodest girl with the patience of a saint.
Here’s a picture of her (left) with her fellow therapy dog, Sniper, who has also crossed over to the rainbow bridge. 🌈
