Ista HanhepiWi the Siberian Indian Dog

My husband is an attorney and I work in his office. Our Siberian Indian Dogs accompany us to the office. Our dog, Ista HanhepiWi, was in the office and a young man in legal trouble came in for an appointment. He had an attitude when he came in and was acting like he was really tough and was actually quite rude. He was dressed like a gang member with tatoos and body piercings. Then he met our dog. It was amazing to watch the transformation. This rude, tough acting, young man was baby-talking to Ista and became mush. We bring our dogs to the Law Office because they are therapy dogs. People don't generally need a lawyer when things are going great. People visibly soften and relax when they meet the dogs!
