Doodles in the Classroom

[Janice Allocco-Ange]

Does anyone use your doodle as a therapy dog in the classroom?  In our area we have a school district that uses therapy dogs in the classroom.  I am interested in learning more about this and possibly doing this after retirement.

We had a group called "READ" came to our in-service to talk about their work.
The dogs that came to the in-service weren't doodles, but why not?! From their video, kids seem to really enjoy interacting with the dogs who does not judge their reading skills.....

Thanks for the link! I know some of the therapy dogs in the program here are doodles. I think it is a great idea!

I've just retired and have a 7 month doodle Gracie. I would love to be able to do something like that when she has matured and "calmed down" I've read about the R.E.A.D. group
