School on May 15th

Timber did her school gig today. One of the children would have gotten his book for reading to Timber today - but - he was out of school... 2 of my regular readers were on a field trip... SO - it was a perfect opportunity to have 3 of my former kids (read last fall) to help break in a READer dog in training! The 3 boys were excited to help out ( and to see Timber) !!!!!!! "Cirra" is a white Great Pyrenees, 3 years old. Her owner, Robyn, had observed the school READ program a few weeks ago and today she was observing again... I thought it was a good day to start Cirra! Cirra attracts a lot of attention wherever she goes.... She is BIG and WHITE!! It was quite a site to see - big, white, long haired Cirra and black, short haired and seemed very small, Timber - on each side of a kid. Cirra did fabulous for her first time. She stayed for all 3 boys and I think got the hang of it. The librarian took many pictures of Cirra's first day for Robyn and the boys. We made plans for the final days of school. We will "graduate" the remaining children with their new books in the next 2 weeks and have a Rissa group read the first Thursday in June.
