✨ 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 Brian, volunteering with his pup Magnus the Therapy Dog is a way to bring moments of normalcy to critically and terminally ill children.

In this 69th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I chat with Brian Benson and his amazing Yellow Labrador, Magnus, known around the world as Magnus the Therapy Dog. We dive into their inspiring journey as a volunteer team with the Good Dog Foundation in New York, and how they’ve touched the lives of many terminally and critically ill children.

In this episode, we discuss …

  • Why Magnus initially joined Brian’s family.

  • How Brian’s experiences with hospitals have fueled his passion to volunteer.

  • What it’s been like to further their impact online.

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!
