This will be a great way for her to practice her reading skills while she's "mothering" her new baby. :-)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04451132815804002971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8636731278531757769.post-4786521833071699802011-07-24T21:12:43.108-04:002011-07-24T21:12:43.108-04:00@offtheleashsd That is a great idea!

However, I am willing to make a confession here by declaring that I sort of read to my dogs on a regular basis. This is how it all started.<br /><br />A few years ago I was feeling a little unsettled while reading a book from the comfort of my coach and so I started pacing and still continued reading. This got my dogs’ attention and they started demanding my attention. So I began talking to them while still pacing and they seemed to like it. I then stopped talking to them directly buts started reading out loud which had the same effect as if I was reading to them.<br /><br />From then on, I daily “kill 3 birds in one time.” I read, I walk, I speak to my dogs all in a single group of actions which could be interpreted as reading to them.Hanna at Dog Productshttp://dogproducts.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8636731278531757769.post-77255204157930714402011-07-23T00:59:29.576-04:002011-07-23T00:59:29.576-04:00Love this.

Not every night, but from time to time when I find a treasured childhood book like Hairy McClary from Donaldson's Dairy or Harry the Dirty Dog. LOL, I've also been known to sing Sheldon Coopers "Soft Kitty" to them (substituting the word puppy, of course). *sigh* I am so not cool.Kolchak Pugglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03246753495695769393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8636731278531757769.post-24847396299087955002011-07-22T15:36:14.619-04:002011-07-22T15:36:14.619-04:00This is so cute!

I don't know if mine would get anything out of the words, but the snuggling and bonding itself are definitely a benefit. Whether she would rather eat the book or listen to me read it though is up in the air. :-PKristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08942859130560139570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8636731278531757769.post-68158349686360087382011-07-22T14:38:24.872-04:002011-07-22T14:38:24.872-04:00That sounds interesting!!
