Officially kicked off the therapy dog program this week at West Allegheny School District!

I don't take it lightly that this is what I get to do for a living, and I'm incredibly grateful to the folks at West Allegheny School District for trusting me with something this important.

It's a privilege to do this, and to support teams who are working toward making a meaningful impact within their community.

West Allegheny is exactly the kind of school you should want your kids to attend.

Kami passed her CGC and therapy dog tests!

It’s not often that I get a dog who is such a perfect fit for therapy work , and it’s not often that I get a human who is a perfect therapy volunteer.
And it’s even less often that they’re part of the same team. Congrats Kami and Mary!

Proprioception (dictionary definition):
The sense by which an individual perceives the position, motion, and equilibrium of their own body parts, independent of vision.
(You’ll also see it described as awareness of where your body is in space.)
