We have a star as a client!
Kai, a 2 year old Border Collie, attended puppy, beginning and advanced obedience classes.  
He also began visiting at nursing homes when he was about 10 weeks old.  He earned his CGC
and passed the evaluation for Therapy Dog International before he was 18 months old.  In
December 2008, he became a Therapy Dog Inc (TDInc) registered therapy dog. Kai has now
been accepted to the Animal Assisted Therapy Dog program at Edward Hospital in
Naperville.  Edward's AAT program is the largest hospital-based therapy dog program in the
country.  There are 100 volunteer therapy dog teams working in the program that began in
2002 and Kai is the first Border Collie to be accepted.  Kai's Sheltie "brother", Sam, was a
member of the Edward AAT program from 2002 to 2008.

BRAVO KAI!!!! and congrats to his owner Debra for her perseverance in all she achieved.
