Skippy

He is so soft! These are the first words Skippy, my Tibetan Spaniel, hears when he does therapy visits. At West Hills Hospital, Skippy visits with the staff and leaps on patients’ beds to be petted and have his photo taken. We also bring joy to the Alzheimer’s patients at Belmont Village. Legend states that all the Dali Lamas had Tibetan Spaniels, and the dogs were given as special gifts to important visitors. Now I have the perfect opportunity to share my special gift, Skippy, with others.
