Thanks again Robin. Nevada County Memorial Hospital is pretty strict about not allowing dogs, even in their therapy ward without CGC or therapy dog papers. So I must get them.
When Minnie gets her CGC and passes her therapy test, would I be able to use that to have her stay with me Ina restaurant or hotel that doesn't allow dogs? She still wouldn't be a service dog. \ \ /\ ( ) White Rabbit 32 .( ).
