Therapy Dog Talk

Hallie + Buddy: From Guide Dog prospect to Animal Assisted Therapy.


Listen Later

A career changed Guide Dog can often thrive as a Therapy Dog and puppy raiser Hallie’s journey with Buddy is a great example.

In this 29th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I chat with Hallie and her friendly Golden Retriever, Buddy. We talk about their journey from training Buddy to be a Guide Dog to working as an Animal Assisted Therapy Dog. We discuss the ups and downs of working with therapy dogs and the amazing ways Buddy helps people.

In this episode, we discuss …

  • How Buddy's hatred of crates and love of people led him to continue Lulu's legacy.
  • What it can look like when a dog is able to thrive through a change in roles.
  • What Hallie finds most rewarding about being a puppy raiser for Guide Dogs and working in Animal Assisted Therapy.

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!
