Doggin' it

I stopped off at the Longwood Starbucks after working out at the gym on Friday and found myself in the middle of a birthday party for the service dogs from Canine Partners for Life. There were about 10 of the intelligent and beautifully behaved animals there, both inside and outside the coffee shop, along with lots of their human companions. A few of the dogs wore pointed birthday hats, and they snacked on doggie treats while their humans enjoyed their drinks.
Usually there is some good people-watching to be done at Starbucks, but that afternoon was all about dog-watching.
Canine Partners for Life, which is based in Cochranville, trains and places dogs to help people with physical and cognitive disabilities.
