Tall Tails
Spend one-on-one time and read a story with a furry friend!
Children of all reading levels are encouraged to get to know one of Canine Companion's future service dogs. These dogs will one day work alongside people with disabilities to help increase their independence.
Each child will get 15 minutes of reading time with their pawsome audience to practice their literacy skills.
Tall Tails is offered on the last Wednesday of every month. Registration is required for children participating.
