What if your dog has the potential to provide comfort and healing to those in need? In this episode I chat with Sherry Rode, host of Therapy Dog Talk, a weekly Instagram live series dedicated to therapy dog teams.  We dive headfirst into the world of therapy dogs and service animals. From the distinguishing traits between therapy dogs, emotional support animals, and service dogs, to the specialized training a dog requires for each role, we cover all the bases. We also touch upon the rules and regulations surrounding these special animals, and the process of becoming a therapy animal.Useful Links:https://www.sherrierohde.com/Support the show If you are enjoying The Baroo Podcast you can now support the show by buying me a coffee.
