Heather and her Golden Retriever, Dolly, join forces to inspire a love for reading, creating bookworms one child at a time.

In this 79th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I chat with Heather and her Golden Retriever, Dolly, about their inspiring work in creating bookworms by combining Heather’s passion for education with Dolly’s natural bond with children. Heather shares her journey as an educator and how she and Dolly became a successful therapy dog team.

In this episode, we discuss …

• How Therapy Dogs can foster a love for reading by boosting kids’ confidence.
• Why it’s important to pay attention to your dog’s needs and know when they need a break.
• How continuous training is important for therapy dog teams to stay effective and adaptable.
