Cross Country Team Brings Shelter Dogs Out For a Run
What a great idea! St. Joseph High School in Santa Maria, CA decided to hold their practice at a local animal shelter, and invited the dogs out for a run with the team.
Their video was posted to YouTube; here’s how the videographer describes the experience: This morning, me and the St. Joseph High School Cross Country Team conducted our workout at the County Animal Shelter in Santa Maria. With the help of Stacy Silva we successfully completed the first ever team Dog Run! Each team member was assigned a dog and we went out for a couple miles around the shelter. I am not sure who was more excited and having the most fun…the dogs or the kids. Either way, it was a great time and I am sure we will do it again sometime soon. Thanks Stacy Silva and Geoff Clinton.

Canines and Childhood Cancer
Whether it’s because they relieve boredom, raise depressed spirits, or provide that extra cuddle, therapy dogs are being proven to help kids beat cancer. They also help the families who are stressed out over their loved ones.
The study is being done by the American Humane Association at five children’s hospitals, paid for by Zoetis and The Pfizer Foundation.
The video highlights some of the successes they’ve had so far.
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
