✨ 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

For Lindsay, becoming a school therapy dog team with her Blue Merle Aussiedoodle Tucker was challenging but worth it.

In this 46th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I chat with Lindsay and her energetic Blue Merle Aussiedoodle, Tucker, about their incredible journey as a school therapy dog team in New Jersey. Lindsay, a special education teacher, knew from the start that Tucker’s high energy and intelligence meant he needed a job. After witnessing the positive impact therapy dogs had on students during a summer school program, she decided to train Tucker for this rewarding role.

In this episode, we discuss …

  • Why Lindsay knew that her Aussiedoodle needed a job—and gave him two.

  • What she did to help prepare Tucker to be a School Therapy Dog.

  • How's she's implemented Tucker's talking pet buttons at school.

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!
