Birdie is my personal pet and office companion (She's also contemplating a modeling career) that became a family member in April 2017. She is an active and lovable English Springer Spaniel pup that is medium sized, but on the smaller end for her breed. We have spent countless hours in obedience training so that she behaves well. She has achieved AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy and Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Certified which means she has passed the 10 point test on good manners and obedience. However, she is still very excitable and often forgets how to sit when she meets someone new. She will greet you with tail wags and lots of kisses. After your initial hello's she will sit on the floor next to you for pets or will find a spot in the office to lounge. You are welcome to give her as much or as little attention as you want. Trust me she gets plenty of attention between sessions and at home. Her main goal as my office companion is to provide support to my clients when they want it. If she gets a couple of pats and a little smile from you, then it's been a successful day.
During your initial paperwork, I will send you a form where you will decide if you would like Birdie to join your sessions. You are welcome to answer any way to want. Even after you submit your form, you are allowed to change your response at any time. If you do want Birdie to come to your sessions, it's important to note that she will not be available every day or week. I try to choose days where she will have an opportunity for walks and snacks.
