Description

Bree was surprised to find that her rescue dog Mickey was the perfect fit for a School Therapy Dog.

In this 88th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I had the privilege of speaking with Bree Long. Once a School Psychologist, Bree now dedicates her time to being a volunteer Therapy Dog handler, working alongside her rescue, a German Shepherd mix named Mickey.

In this episode, we discuss …

  • How Bree was surprised that it was her rescue who was the right fit for Therapy Dog work.
  • Why it’s important to recognize your dog’s boundaries and know when they need a break.
  • Where Bree has found ideas for Animal-Assisted Activities and which one is her favorite.

I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I do. Give it a watch or a listen and then let me know in the community which part you found the most helpful!
