Beaufort therapy dog chapter to hold test

Would you like to see if your dog has what it takes to be a therapy dog?  Beaufort Chapter No. 229 of Therapy Dogs International will host a therapy dog test at 10 a.m. Saturday, March 31, at BayView Manor LLC, 11 S. Todd Dr. in Beaufort.
Therapy dog and handler teams visit assisted living and nursing homes to bring emotional support to residents. They also participate in the “Tail-Waggin’ Tutor” program, helping children with their reading skills, at various elementary schools and the local YMCA. For information on TDI and on what is included in the test, visit the TDI website at www.tdi-dog.org. Only dogs who are being tested should attend this event.
Space in the test is limited, and the deadline to register is March 26.  For more information or to register, call Chapter 229 Director Dick Hoagland at 522-2073.
