Jennifer Garner recently shared exciting news about her golden retriever, Birdie, who is turning nine in May. Birdie has been appointed as a therapy dog and is set to work at Children's Hospital Los Angeles. Garner revealed Birdie's nine goals before her birthday, which include reading new books for kids and spending time at the hospital.
Among Birdie's aspirations are sitting at a Parisian bistro, swimming in the Olympics, eating an entire string of cheese, skydiving, going on a date with Major Biden, and singing with the Metropolitan Opera. Garner humorously mentioned Birdie's desire to stop biting her nails and her series 'Books with Birdie,' where she reads children's books to the retriever.
Birdie's journey began when Garner's eldest daughter, Violet Anne, waited until her tenth birthday to get her own dog. Garner shares Violet, Seraphina Rose, and Samuel with ex-husband Ben Affleck. Birdie's promotion to a therapy dog marks a significant milestone in her life.
The actress highlighted Birdie's advocacy for children's literacy through her book-reading series. Garner's dedication to promoting literacy aligns with Birdie's mission to support early literature. Birdie's upcoming adventures and goals showcase her vibrant personality and the special bond she shares with Garner and her family.
