✨ Become a confident, resilient Therapy Dog team in 10 weeks with my Life Skills for Therapy Dog Teams course—limited time enrollment: https://sherrierohde.com/course

What’s it like for a family to work with volunteer Therapy Dogs? The Wadleys weigh in with their experiences.

In this 35th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I chat with Jared Wadley, News Magazine Editor for Alliance of Therapy Dogs, and his sons, Jordan and Devin, about their amazing experiences with their volunteer therapy dogs, Bella, Legend, and Bree. We talk about training the dogs, how Jared found out about therapy dog work, and why volunteering is great for families.

In this episode, we discuss …

  • How Jared discovered Therapy Dogs and encouraged his sons to join him as Junior Handlers.

  • What it has been like to train three dogs to volunteer in a variety of settings.

  • The unexpected benefits of volunteering as a Junior Handler.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I do. Give it a listen and then let me know in the community which part you found the most helpful!
