After the success of the therapy dog station at Reilly Elementary's Ability Awareness Day in January, AHF was invited to participate in Chaparral Elementary's similar event in Ladera Ranch on Feb. 6, 2012. 350 students in grades 4 and 5 visited the dogs and learned about what it takes to train a dog for therapy work, and how the dogs help people in need. Teams participating were Tammy Heider with Gracie, Jane Horsfield with Kiss, Daleen Comer with Bonnie and Rudolf Mueller and Susan Tanimura with Reika.
