Our wonderful Therapy Dog Team did the Christmas Seniors' Photo Shoot at Vista Village in Pincher Creek yesterday and thanks to our patient photographer, Char Lazaroto, the care-givers at Vista Village, our wonderful dogs and handlers, we can boast some very nice prints to give the residents of the  assisted living facility.  This year it was decided that the numbers of dogs available for photos be reduced to just the dogs from the therapy team; those that visit regularly at Vista.  I found that the strain on the dogs after being set up in four separate locations over three hours was a bit much.  These dogs are absolutely amazing in that they managed, for the most part, to look animated and interested in their environment.  Next year, we will have two teams, one for the 'cottages' and the other for the regular photos to save the dogs.
