And thatโ€™s a wrap! What a busy first half term! Here are a few pictures from last week. Kind of cute as a pumpkin donโ€™t you think?
Thanks to the students @stranbelfast for their very warm welcome (and cuddles!) when I visited ๐Ÿ’œ
Another week done โœ… Itโ€™s been a busy one for me, here are some pictures to show you some things Iโ€™ve been doing. I was very excited this week, one of my chums who was really unsure of me when I first came into school was brave enough to brush me this week ๐ŸŽ‰ Iโ€™ve been working hard on building their confidence - my humans in Team Raia tell me thatโ€™s what Iโ€™m good at ๐Ÿ’œ
I had a fab visit to @mencapni this week ๐ŸŽ‰ I met lots of new little friends, mummy told me a was a very good girl and stayed super calm. I also met new โ€˜bigโ€™ friends who gave me such a warm welcome and good ear scratches too.
A round up of photos from a very busy week ๐Ÿฅณ
I was so happy to welcome some VIPs to school to celebrate our @nurtureuk award ๐ŸŽ‰ it was a fun day of celebrations! Thanks so much to our guests from @educationauthority, @de_northern_ireland and our other partners for all the cuddles! I had to listen while Mummy told SO many stories about me, but I have to say there were all true! Iโ€™ve been a big part of the Nurture journey and Iโ€™m so proud we got the award ๐Ÿฅณ
One of my favourite things to do is to sit up on the knees of my chums. I know who likes to invite me up, can you see how well I can sit in lots of ways? My chums all cuddle me in different ways - I love it ๐Ÿ’œ This week one of my chums told me they have never loved any dog apart from me and when they feel stressed a cuddle for me helps a lot, I feel so proud that my hard work is paying off ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŽ‰
Here are some pictures from my class visits in Post Primary this week ๐Ÿ’œ Youโ€™ll notice from these pictures that I do more than just give out cuddles, my reading skills are developing really well ๐Ÿคฃ
This is my very own TEAM RAIA ๐ŸŽ‰ I was super excited to introduce my favourite doggie trainer Gary from @assistancedogsni to my human handlers in school this week. We had a whole training session all about me ๐ŸŽ‰ I was able to show them lots of the things I learnt with Gary during my Doggie School ๐Ÿ’œ I love going out and about with my team to visit their class๐Ÿพ. Itโ€™s so important for me that I know I have a handler to look to for my commands - they also make sure Iโ€™m always on my best behaviour ๐Ÿคฃ PS a few of my team are missing from this pic, I love them too ๐Ÿ’œ
