Today the NASCAR pups visited a local long term care home. I can't even begin to tell you how proud I am of these pups. The activity room was *packed* with wheelchairs, walkers, canes, people of all ages, sexes, and health status - some quite ill and non verbal and the pups handled it all in stride - racing and playing tug with each other amongst the walkers and wheelchairs, snuggling and being quite gentle when held for a resident to pet or sit in their lap if they were strong enough to hold the pup. They were periodically taken by PSWs one by one to those residents' rooms who really wanted to see the pups but weren't well enough to come in person. What a lovely group of puppies. They had a blast and they definitely brought some joy today. As they always say in the local paper, "a good time was had by all". Then, live pigeons this afternoon. Yeehaw!
