For the fifth consecutive year, students in Amy Yancey.s class hosted Deacon the gentle giant of a golden retriever and the playfully cool Leroy Brown the bulldog.
During the sessions, kids and their four-legged friends played games used pet therapy as a way to improve communication and social skills.
Arlington.s Pet Therapy program has worked with Respect A Bull, Inc. and volunteer Tom Waits each year to bring therapy dogs to AISD classrooms.
