Kennedy pursued Therapy Dog training with her rescue and now she’s applying what she’s learned with her new prospect, Finn.
In this 85th episode of Therapy Dog Talk, I sit down with Kennedy Connor, a licensed child and adolescent therapist in Indianapolis. Kennedy shares about her therapy dog training journey with her four-year-old pup, Remy, a natural Therapy Dog “unicorn,” who has joined her in Animal-Assisted Therapy as well as the steps she’s taking to prepare her four month old field spaniel, Finn, for a future in therapy work.
In this episode, we discuss …
- How Kennedy helped Remy to become a confident Therapy Dog.
- What she looked for in selecting Finn as a therapy prospect.
- How Therapy Dog training isn’t linear and is an ongoing effort.
