Calling all my fellow ECGRR Rescues!

pawsfriendship1-2My name is Bella, I am a 3yr. old Golden.   ECGRR placed me in my forever home August 2015.  For that I am eternally grateful and have a desire to “give back” to others.

I have recently been certified as a Therapy Dog through www.PawsForFriendship.org (PFF).  I hope to start the first Paws to Read program in the Bay County school system, an extremely successful literacy program already in schools around the state and the country.  My family wants to create an active chapter of PFF in the Panhandle.  I need my fellow rescues help as I cannot do this alone.  As Therapy Dogs, we provide comfort and affection to people of all ages, at schools , care facilities, hospitals, universities, any one in need of a puppy hug to brighten someone’s day.

If you are well socialized and has an owner who wants to share your gift please consider joining.  Certification is not hard or expensive.  PFF has 386 chapters around the world and is fully insured. PFF encompasses every level of Community Outreach, please go to their website to learn more.

If interested, please email doublegatorlodge@comcast.net as well as contact PFF.  Please help me brighten lives from all walks of life. I can’t do it alone!
