P
BGVs have a variety of interests that make them happy to participate. One of their favorites is their association and
interaction with children.
H
ere you see Bandit, a five year old PBGV in Mrs. Hamilton’s second grade class at Samsula Academy in Florida. Bandit
is enjoying her time as each child has an opportunity to read a page from the class’ story book of the day.
W
ould you like your child or grandchild to be a more enthusiastic reader? Picture this - a cozy blanket and pillow, a
wonderful story book tale and a child that is eager to share. I’m sure your PBGV would be happy to join in listening
to the story - as your child finds the experience not only enjoyable but so rewarding to spend a special time with their
dog.
D
o you and your PBGV participate in any Service Projects in your commu-
nity? If so, send us a quick write up and a couple of photos. We’d love to
showcase all our PBGVs using their sweet natured spirits as ambassadors for
the breed and to help others.
