Dr. Dog Visits Autistic Childrens Center

This is the second visit of Dr. Dog Penang. They were invited to visit the Autistic Childrens Center. The center helps parents on how to cope with their children and also teaches the kids to do daily things. 

When the dogs arrived, everyone was excited and couldn't wait for the program to start. The program started with an introduction of the dogs and their handlers. They were then separated into different stations to give each kid a chance to interact with the dogs. Below are some photos of the events.

Happenings of 2013

We would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year. There were both happy and sad times in the year 2013. Here is a list of what happened in 2013:-

1. Our dear friend Daniel, the owner of Sparx & Fritz, has passed away because of kidney failure. He was a musician, photographer and a fighter. He will be missed by all of us.

2. Zara from The Butterfly Chaser's also passed away. She died because of old age. She was a happy and friendly German Shepherd. She will be greatly missed and always be in out hearts.

3. One of our dog was a suitable candidate for the Dr. Dog program and we took her in for an evaluation. To our surprise, she passed the test and now carried the name Dr. She is no other than Dr. Hayley.

Dr Hayley

4. Since Dr. Hayley has to 'work', we decided to take photos while she and her colleagues are working. In other words, we are the unofficial photographer of Dr. Dog (Penang).
