Meet Jessie – Our Therapy Dog in Training

Jessie is our friendly Kelpadore who is currently training to be a therapy support dog. She is specially taught to respond to hand signals, which makes her an ideal partner for children and young people who are non-verbal or use AAC devices.

From sitting, laying down, and jumping to playing fetch, Jessie helps participants practice communication in a fun, engaging, and low-stress way. Her gentle nature and playful energy make her a wonderful therapy companion.

We’ll be sharing videos and photos of Jessie working with clients soon — so stay tuned!
