Hi, my name is Bitsy Dog Walker but everybody just calls me Bitsy.  I was born on Thanksgiving Day in 2007 and came to live with my human family when I was 7 weeks old.  My Great Grandma was a Cocker Spaniel and my Great Grandpa was a Poodle and that makes me a Cockapoo.  The first time Dad took me to see Dr. Betsy at Creature Comforts Animal Hospital, she said that I was so smart and confident that I needed a job.  That was a polite way of saying I had waaaay too much energy.  Anyway, Dad started taking me to school and I loved it!  When I graduated I heard that people said I was the youngest dog that they ever knew to graduate from dog school.  I didn’t know what I wanted to do  when I grew up but Dad knew I liked people so after a while he took me to another school where I learned to be something  he called a therapy dog.  After I got out of that school we started going to places where people sit around and wait for me to come visit them.  Boy, that’s cool!  People talk real sweet to me and hold me and rub my fur and I show my appreciation by doing tricks for them. A little later we got into a program called “See Spot Read” where children read to a dog named Spot.  Spot must be real busy because he never shows up so the children read to me!  That’s like heaven because children are my favorite people!   And that’s how I came to have my job!   

My favorite pastimes when I’m not working are spending quite time with Mom while she reads, taking long walks with Mom & Dad, playing games and doing dog agility training with Dad.
