A rainy day in Michigan could not ruin the day for these wonderful teams testing this morning to become Bright & Beautiful Therapy Dog Teams.

Great job Kelly with Ruby, Ellie with Pepper, Stana with Barnum , Rich and Indy, and Christine with Maude.

Thanks Kendra Merrell for assisting Rose and me in making the test so smooth and efficient.

Welcome to our wonderful family

Happy Thursday Everyone 😃

Rose and I had the pleasure of visiting the FoX2 studios last week.

Their Producer found us and asked us to represent The Fur Angels in a short story

Our portion is at the 8:50 minute mark and will be a part of their streaming platform.

Feel free to share . 😃

We talk with Michigan Humane about what do you if you find a stray kitten this spring -- plus discuss people's guilt over vacationing without their pets and how some are using psychics to comfort both them and their animals

Apparently Olive is anticipating a delicious coney soon 🤪
