Unemployed Therapy Dog

Blossom seems to be uprooting me from my job as therapy dog . . . she passed the 1st part of the therapy dog certification test on the first night of class (I'm now taking my 3rd round of classes) Annoying. However, I feel morally obligated to disclose her few problem behaviors to the world . . . so that I will feel better about myself. BLOSSOM IS A SHOPLIFTER! Yes, that's right. She was caught wandering through Food Lion on the fourth of July AFTER she made an escape from the owner. Sure, she was frightened by the evil children that set off cherry bombs and she pulled the owner down a flight of stairs, causing her leash to break(I think someone had been chewing it a little :) . . . .but then . . . SHE REFUSED TO COME WHEN CALLED . .. and then she was found 3 hours later and about 2 miles away . . . shoplifting inside the Food Lion. I mean I've done some naughty things . . . but I've never caused the owner to have panic attacks and significant trauma. Yet . .. . they still give Blossom cookies. They would have sent me off to an intensive boarding and training school for rehab if I had pulled that stunt. But no .... dogs with tails have much easier lives.
