    S/O : What is going on with "therapy" dogs everywhere?

    I have a certified therapy dog...they are different than emotional support dogs or service dogs. The below spells out the differences nicely. I agree that there are people who abuse the certifications. The more educated that people are the less this will be able to happen.

    Therapy Dog vs Service Animal on plane

    Therapy dogs are not "service dogs". I have a therapy dog who has passed training and certification to visit and socialize with people. However my dog does not have any special accommodations that a service dog does. I think it is tricky as many people refer to "service dogs", (seeing eye...

    Best time to buy new mattress?

    Our kids were relegated to a sleeping bag if they wanted to sleep in our room. As with the above post you can move it out the the child's room. With the sleeping bag they were in the room, but not in our bed. Have to be careful in the morning NOT to step on them though!
