Owen, a certified Bright Spot Therapy Dog, has had a summer full of fun frolicking with his brother Finley along wooded trails throughout western Massachusetts and swimming in crystal-clear streams (and a few muddy ponds) whenever they could.
With school now well-under-way, it’s time for this fun loving dog to get back to work. Owen is one of twelve Bright Spot Reading Buddy Teams heading back to area schools to help children with their reading skills. Owen and his brother Finley alternate weeks working with kindergarteners at the Westhampton Elementary School. In addition, Owen and Finley, both Australian Cobberdogs, participate in our college campus Therapy Dog Stress-Relief Events during mid-terms and finals. Like all good Therapy Dogs, this friendly duo LOVES their work!
