Hallie + Apgar: An Animal Assisted Therapy team in Georgia.
Description
Hallie shares what it’s like for Apgar to join her in Animal Assisted Therapy at a Psychiatric Hospital.
In this 95th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I sit down with Hallie to talk about her adventures with Apgar, a Yellow Labrador who’s made an impressive switch from being a Guide Dog in training to a much-loved Therapy Dog. Their story is all about embracing life’s unexpected twists and using them to positively impact others.
In this episode, we discuss …
- How Hallie helped Apgar transition from Guide Dog prospect to Therapy Dog.
- Why the deep bond between a handler and their Therapy Dog as crucial for successful therapy work.
- What it’s like to be a puppy raiser for Southeastern Guide Dogs and how you can get involved.
