The Dana Point Library had some four-legged visitors last week during their Read to a Dog program.

On Tuesday, March 21, three volunteers from OCSPCA Paws program came to the library with their furry friends to sit by the children as they read different books.

PAWS or Pets Are Wonderful Support, is a pet assisted therapy program that travels throughout Orange County. They visit nursing homes, hospitals, hospices, schools and libraries to bring joy and calming atmosphere to those who may need it.

During the library’s event, Coco, Sophie and Duke, three of the dogs, sat with different groups of children while they read picture books, dog books and more.

The Dana Point Library holds Read to a Dog twice a month. To see a list of their events, visit www.ocpl.org/libloc/dana/calendar.
