How do you know that your dog loves therapy work?

We have three dogs and Chia races to the car to be the "chosen one." She loves to enter the front door of schools and sign in. Most importantly she loves to interact with the children and wants them to teach her something new to make them smile. Today she learned that "e," "a," "t," means she can have the treat; so now she can spell.
