Remember when we told you that there was a chance to help Hand in Paw therapy team Nena Moon and Ellie win the Beyond Limits Award in the Pet Partners category? Well, they won

Here’s the video that helped win it for them:

Congratulations!

Help Nena and Ellie be recognized nationally

We’ve just learned about what you might call the American Idol of therapy dog awards. One of Hand In Paw‘s therapy teams, Nena Moon and her dog Ellie, are one of only five finalist teams from around the country competing for the Pet Partners category of the Beyond Limits Awards. It’s presented by The Delta Society, the international organization that registers professionally trained therapy teams. The winner is chosen by popular vote on the Society’s website. There’s a video on the website of Nena and Ellie in action at UAB’s Comprehensive Cancer Center (it’s the last one). So go, check it out and vote once a week through Feb. 7 (with one vote per ISP) and then tell your firends.
