The Pups
I believe animals have a special way of helping people just feel better. My dogs often come to the office with me and enjoy greeting clients, offering affection, and receiving lots of pets. Although they are not certified therapy dogs, their friendly and loving nature brings comfort, warmth, and a little extra joy to the therapeutic space.

Finn

Hi, my name is Finn! I can be a little shy and anxious when I first meet someone, but once I get to know you, I’ll happily let you pet me. I’m a big dog who loves to cuddle, and sometimes I forget my size and think I’m a lap dog! I also love giving kisses. My favorite part of coming to the office is getting butt scratches and finding anyone who will let me climb into their lap.
Dogs have a way of finding the people who need them and filling an emptiness we didn't ever know we had.
Koda


Hi, my name is Koda! I’m full of confidence and love being the center of attention. I love to play, give kisses, explore everything around me, and bark at anything with four legs. Sometimes I have selective hearing and don’t always listen to my mom—but I’m working on it! My favorite part of coming to the office is getting belly rubs and lots of attention from my mom’s clients.
