On this past Saturday as I was getting ready to go teach class, I happen to catch a very special story on an animal show that was on t.v. The story was about Archie the Newfoundland Therapy dog at Casa Pacifica in Camarillo, CA. This is a home for abused, neglected, or at-risk children. The difference Archie has made to this home is remarkable. The stories of how Archie has helped range from a little girl who would not talk to anyone but Archie, to a young man that was lost and felt no love from anyone until he met Archie. Words cannot truly describe the bond and love that is between these kids and Archie, the video did a far better job of capturing that. Watching Archie, this huge dog, just give out love to these kids was so touching and to see the kids running and playing and most importantly laughing. The cutest thing was Archie waiting at the bus drop off for all the kids to return home, what a welcome that must be!
