Winter changes how places look, for example, I just couldn’t place this first photo from Nora Dee, but she let me know it was down near the boat launch out by White City, then it clicked for me. Pretty with the sun hitting on the shoreline there.

Nora’s next shot was once she arrive at home. She said this is a daily ritual for Bleau, Calumet Middle School’s resident therapy dog, who resides with the Dee family. He sits at attention, making sure everything is in order outside the window. The third photo shows why he’s on watch, because when the deer show up, they have a daily stare down, to see who barks or runs off first. How fun is that?

We even have a short video of them interacting together. They keep an eye on each other and have a little playful fun, like dueling critters. Neat to see them play like this. For more information on Bleau’s Therapy job at CLK Schools, click on this link: First Therapy Dog in the U.P.

I had to smile and laugh at todays pic's and video! Great looking dog, I bet Bleau has a great time outside chasing the critters and deer!!

I just clicked on the First Therapy Dog... Bleau's also quite the hit with the kids and serving a very important role in their education! Way to go Bleau!!

I think our dog Finn ( new profile pic) would also be a good Therapy Dog, and he'd want the kids to chase him during recess or the gym. He'd keep em in shape for sure! :))

Neato pix and video short. Sometimes I feel like Bleau in the 2nd pic...looking out the window and patiently waiting for Spring.

Adorable pic, UC...I think I'm in love.

Any day with so many canine pictures has to be good! Maybe Bleu and Finn could be a tag team therapy duo!

It looks like the Dees are gonna have to put that bird feeder up higher — out of reach of the deer, er … giraffe(s)¹!
