Holly and Kara welcome Guests Tamara Rasing and Shelly Schossow to talk about the Prison Dog program in Calhoun County, Iowa at the North Central Correctional Facility. Rescue dogs are placed with prisoners for important one-on-one training, socialization and relationship building. The positive effects of this program extend far beyond a dog learning to "sit".
