Today, Sarah and I (plus our superguest, Stacey Samela 😎), will be discussing a subject near and dear to our hearts: Therapy dogs!
Therapy dogs are amazing! And if you've been thinking about training your best friend to become one, then you're in the right place. 🤩
You might be asking yourself questions like, "Can my dog become a therapy dog?", "How can I train him to become one?", or even "Is my dog right for this?"
After all, you can't just take your dog to a school or a nursing home for a visit and call it a day. 🤷
