Normandy Care Center Shares Joy with Pets

There’s nothing like a loving pet to bring joy, and that happiness was celebrated at The Normandy Care Center with a lively Dog Show on May 9!

Pets owned by staff and resident families stopped by for fun games and a birthday party for Earl, a retired Rocky River postman, who cut the cake for his 90th birthday!

Pups ran through a list of obedience tricks for residents and shared their love with one and all in the Memory Care Neighborhood. Happy birthday, Earl!
