<p style="margin:0in">Can subgrantees use LSTA funds to purchase and train a dog?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in">I have an applicant applying for our larger LSTA grant round requesting funds for a therapy dog and the training. They have a partner organization that selects and trains the dog. (It's unclear from the application who will be caring for
the dog). The grant is otherwise well thought out and has supporting data.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin:0in">We have another library in our state with a cat, who has his own blog and a fan club with swag for sale, so I can see how having a therapy dog in the library has benefits beyond improving fluency and mental health. I see nothing in the
2CFR about live animals... oh my!<o:p></o:p></p>
