Continues with: A typical day
as East Midlands Education dog, Bailey!
It’s 9:00am and me
and my owner, Anthea, are getting ready for another fun filled day of Education
Workshops at school.
I love visiting
all the children at the primary schools across the East
Midlands and I also love meeting the teachers. They always greet
me with a big stroke and a bowl of fresh water and sometimes Anthea gets a cup
of coffee too!
When I’m finished
having my fuss and have had a good a good sniff around, they show me to the
classroom where we will be working. Anthea puts down my blanket so I can relax
and have a lie down while she’s talking to the children.
Anthea tells the
children all about me and how I ended up at Dogs Trust. She tells them
about how she has to take really good care of me and all of the different
things that she has to give me to keep me happy. Sometimes the younger children
like to have a go at pretending to be me which I find especially funny when
they wear the doggy ears! She even shows the children how she has to scoop my
poop, which can be a little embarrassing when the children get to have a go
themselves!
When I’m finished
napping, sometimes I let the children find my microchip, brush my fur or even
listen to my heart but one of my favourite games is when the children teach me
a new trick because I just love to show off and they always give me a treat
when I do!
When we’re
finished teaching the children all about how be responsible dog owners, I know
it’s time for the best part! The stroking!
