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.
