This is a series of caches at or nearby sites that my geodog, Redtail, visited as a certified therapy dog. Redtail is my golden retriever who loves to geocache with me. He’s got a nose for a cache and knows when to sit and stay while I sign the log. He is exceptionally sweet and kind. When he was a puppy Mr. Redtail2000 and I promised that we would get him certified as a therapy dog. Admittedly, he had to take Canine Good Citizenship twice because during the final exam he jumped on the instructor… but only because he loved her so much. Those goldens sure do love to be a puppy! Finally at the mature age of eight, he’s made the ranks as a therapy dog certified by the Southwest Canine Corps of Volunteers. Now I get to share with you some of the more poignant events that occurred during our visits. Please always be mindful and respectful of your surroundings when caching at these sites.
Both Redtail and I really liked the layout of the facility at La Vida Llena Retirement Community. We got to meet just about everyone during our mid- afternoon visit. The Alzheimer’s unit was especially worth noting as the dayroom seemed full of residents that appeared so far away but as we met and greeted them they then appeared quite in tuned to the moment. Later we met a woman in the hallway who shed tears when I thanked her for visiting with Redtail.
Cache on…
**Please be sure to replace cache as you found it to allow for longevity of life…**
Congrats to fgfsumh on the FTF!
PS I promise the cache is not in or near the pyracantha! As always, email me if you'd like a hint.
