The Labradoodles Kalani and Shadow were in place on Monday at the McDonald's location in Okmulgee where a portion of sales from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. go directly to the school's therapy dog fund.
Training each dog costs about $5,400, and they raised about $1,000 Monday night. The district so far is only using the money raised to pay for it.
