I AM BONA FIDO!!!

I PASSED! I PASSED!! I had my last observation yesterday, so Mom was kind of nervous. I felt ok, though. I did get a little nervous once we got to the place we were visiting. It was called an adult day care center, and when we walked in, everyone was sitting in a big circle and I got a little shy at having so many people looking at me. Even though I know I am very handsome. Mom tells me so all the time. We went around the circle, though, from person to person and I shook hands and got lots of petting and kisses. Some people asked Mom about what kind of dog I am and how old and all kinds of boring questions, which I am glad I don't have to answer, cause then I can focus on giving kisses. Mom is sort of like my agent, she handles all of my PR. One lady said I had the prettiest coat she had ever seen and she thanked Mom over and over for bringing me because she said it gave them all something to talk about. I can tell that Mom loves going to therapy just as much as I do because she smiles A LOT and really likes to talk to the people we visit. One time on the way home from Project Success, she cried the whole ride home and told me how special I was because I was so good and made so many people smile. And I thought crying was a sad thing, but Mom said they were happy tears. Anyway, my evaluator, Miss Shirley, said I did a great job and even told Mom that I would be an asset to the program. I think that means they want me to join! Mom has to send in my test papers so I can get a tag for my collar and we can become official members of Therapy Dogs, Inc. And then we can go all sorts of places! I'm so excited and I'm proud, too. Mom said she was very VERY proud of me. And don't tell Dad, but she let me have like 5 treats when we got home and that is way more than I normally get! Mom will post a picture of my fancy new tag when I get it in the mail. I'm officially offical!!!
