I just tried to get Dreyfus into the teen center and they said NO. They already o.k.d me for a bite prevention talk but won't let dogs in?

Way to go Maryellen!

That stinks! How rude

Keep checking around the public library also has paws for reading programs, I bet you find a great place to take the dogs

That is awesome! I always thought I would do something like that when I got a dog, and now I have a Greyhound who would rather ignore people outside of the house than sit with kids and be read to. He would just cry the whole time. LOL!

My roommate does the READ program with her Rottie. I hope to get a pup to do it with. I just love hearing that a pit is out in public, doing good. I can't wait to see pictures!!

by **Maryellen** » January 23rd, 2006, 10:30 pm

he sleeps while they read to him... he is soooo rude... but the kids loved it.. next month i will make sure i bring my camera.. thats why i do it, so that people can see that pits are not what the media makes them out to be..

Wish me and rufus luck
