Today on the Therapy Dogs Australia Podcast, Sam and I chat with not one, but two special guests about why we DON'T recommend you take your puppy into a school or workplace environment before they're ready, and the common mistakes we see people making when raising a future therapy dog. Melissa Searle, the Assistant Principal of Movelle Primary School, very kindly agreed to chat with us and share her unique experience after making some of these common socialisation mistakes. In addition, we are also very lucky to have Amy Hodgkinson join the conversation today. Alongside working with Therapy Dogs Australia, Amy is a Psychologist, Teacher and also runs Therapy Dogs in Education. Her valuable insight and experience with her own therapy dogs working in a school environment offers yet another important perspective when it comes to raising therapy dogs. We hope you enjoy the podcast!
