Hi there
Harley (my golden boy) is a registered PAT dog, and we have just got back from our weekly session with the local special needs school. It is a very rewarding job, as it great to see how the children respond to Harley after just a few weeks. Now that we have some nicer weather, I put a second lead on Harley and the children walk him around the playground, its great to see the sense of achievement on their faces.
Also, we work with one autistic boy, who has to carry something all the time, but over time we have now got him to give up everything for Harley to come in the room, which in turn, means the teachers know the child can give up objects for a greater reward.
Jenny, Harley & Mayhem
