She said where they live in NYC, pitbulls are used for fighting, so her children are terrified of them. When her son petted Havi (who miraculously sat patiently) he was smiling and so happy. I am going to look into bringin a similar program by us!<br /><br />www.twogradstudentsandapittie.blogspot.comTwo Grad Students and a Pittiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13269935614694788118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7773865584149130063.post-8164149531393875682011-06-24T00:40:34.954-05:002011-06-24T00:40:34.954-05:00Even though I'm not a religious person, I thin...Even though I'm not a religious person, I think you're doing God's work.

It's also incredible to see how much those students are eager to learn and ask questions and seek help when they have someone in front of them who it knowledgeable, respectful, and available to them. You are an incredible person and that school is very lucky to have you come speak to those students. I have no doubt that you've helped them by being there, especially those two boys you worked so closely with.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06682247361413446387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7773865584149130063.post-29287099160149671052011-06-15T20:22:24.062-05:002011-06-15T20:22:24.062-05:00I teach PreK in a Title I school in Illinois, whic...I teach PreK in a Title I school in Illinois, which means that at 70% of the kids I work with live at or below the poverty level. My teaching partner and I both bring our dogs in at times. Many of the kids have never met a friendly dog, or one they weren't afraid of. When the dogs are in, it's always a teachable moment. Our kids have a lot of the same questions. I think your program sounds really great and I'm glad you had such success with it!houndstoothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02159272473651561647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7773865584149130063.post-91266436557569904552011-06-15T18:43:31.380-05:002011-06-15T18:43:31.380-05:00I am so impressed by this program, your dedication...I am so impressed by this program, your dedication and the fact that these kids voluntarily gave up their time to take part it it. thank you for doing this...<br /><br />http://maisieme.blogspot.com/Maisie's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00252679527184329606noreply@blogger.com
