Celebrate National Therapy Dog Day with Love Dog Adventures

She spent most of her life diabetic, blind and deaf…

Celebrate National Therapy Dog Day with Love Dog AdventuresShe was the most natural therapy dog ever and

paved the way for all the future Love Dogs…

She even wrote a book and created a Coco doll so many

more people could get to know her…

But as Coco got older she couldn’t do some of the things she used to. And the children who came to love her said “She doesn’t have to do anything because she’s the Love Dog – she just has to love us”. So forever more she was known as Coco the Love Dog…

And Love Dog

Adventures was born
