We posted about our amazing staff on Day 4, so it's only natural to mention our other two staff members: pet therapy dogs in training Maslow (left) and Oscar (right). Both of them are bernedoodles and they and are learning how to comfort + care for clients. Having Maslow and Oscar join our team during the pandemic has been a wonderful and uplifting experience for all. They bring so much joy wherever they go. And I mean, could they be anymore handsome? #10daysofgratitude
