🐾❤️ A visit from some very special guests! ❤️🐾

We had the sweetest visitors stop by for a friendly visit! Residents and team members loved spending time with these wonderful therapy dogs and enjoying all the smiles, cuddles and tail wags they brought with them. 🐶

It was so special to see these pups in action and witness just how obedient, smart, gentle and friendly they are. Their amazing work as therapy dogs truly shines through in the way they connect with everyone they meet. 🥰

We are so thankful for the joy and companionship they brought to Old Main Village. We can’t wait for their next visit! 🐾💕
