PAWS For Reading Program The PAWS for Reading Program is one of the newest programs started by Support Dogs, Inc.

Dogs are a non-threatening entity that promote reading, writing, and increased interaction and social skills of the classroom.

| A Dog's Purpose From A 4 Year Old Being a veterinarian, I had been called to examine a ten-year oldIrish Wolfhound named Belker. The dog's owners, Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane, were all very attached to Belker and they were hoping for a miracle. I examined Belker and found he was dying of cancer. I told the family we couldn't do anything for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia procedure for the old dog in their home. As we made arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they thought it wouldbe good for the four-year-old Shane to observe the procedure. They felt as though Shane might learn something from the experience. The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker's family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, petting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on. Within a few minutes, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker's transition without any difficulty or confusion. We sat together for a while after Belker's death, wondering aloud about the sad fact that animal lives are shorter than human lives. Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up, "I know why." Startled, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next stunned me. I'd never heard a more comforting explanation. He said, "People are born so that they can learn how to live a good life -- like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right?" The four-year-old continued, "Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don't have to stay as long." |

| CAUTIONARY TALE: Please remember that a dog's devotion may compel him to yearn for intimate contact with personal items. Even the most well-behaved dog has chewed up prescription glasses, toothbrushes, contact lens cases, sunglasses,C-PAP masks, nebulizer mouthpieces, inhalers, dentures,iPod earbuds, hearing aids, cell phones, anything that has your scent. It is best to remind visitors to keep their items up off the floor and out of reach. Stash things away in a closed drawer, or behind a secured closet door. Be especially aware of medications which could poison our beloved companion. THANKS! |

| What exactly is SmartFill? SmartFill is a 100% pre-consumer recycled polyester fiber. It is machine washable and dryable. SmartFill is a dense, cushiony fiber that makes Big Shrimpy beds feel more substantial when compared to most other beds. Because SmartFill is made of many individual tufts of fiber, rather than long intertwined virgin fiber, Big Shrimpy beds can be opened up and “refluffed” to restore the loft of the fiber. |
