Mr. S. Baggins (Therapy Dog)

Mr. Baggins

Spa Dog

Our Therapy Dog, Mr Baggins, has been with the spa since it's inception or his birth... whichever happened first those many years ago. Nonetheless, "he" is a happy, hypoallergenic yet fluffy, laid-back-love-bug ready to greet you, should you allow it. While a pure gentlemen to humans of all ages, colors and sizes, Mr B has failed to grow a liking to others of the canine variety. Thus, we must ask for a heads-up, should you decide to bring your favorite furry friend with you to an appointment.

Mr Baggins trained at the exclusive school of the Beard Family Household where he excels at loving on adults, children and 2 older dogs who have respectfully placed him last in the chain of command. He furthered his training with Basic Good Dog Obedience and community service therapy hours. In his spare time he enjoys chasing lizards & squirrels.
