Read to the Dog - Asiago

Build confidence and a love of reading by sharing a story with a gentle, trained therapy dog! In this relaxed, judgment-free program, children ages 5–12 can practice reading aloud at their own pace while our furry friend listens patiently. Bring your favorite book or pick one from the library to read aloud to Asiago.

Reading sessions cannot be extended due to late arrival. 

Program is a first come, first served basis & in person sign-ups begin at 3:30 on the day of the event.

Ages 5-12 with caregiver.
