Ever wondered how our LCC K-9 Comfort Dogs unwind after a long day of comforting others? They get their own special massage time as their ‘paycheck’ for the incredible work they do! These amazing dogs can absorb the pain and stress of those around them, so it’s crucial for us to help them decompress and recharge. Just like the comfort dogs, we all need a little self-care to keep going strong. Taking time to relax and care for ourselves isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity. Remember, to take care of

We’re often asked if Comfort Dogs take on the emotions of the people they visit with. Yes, they can. That’s why their care matters so deeply to us. One healthy way they release and reset is through play. Running, exploring, and being a dog helps them let go. ❤️ Watching Persis Comfort Dog and Sarah Comfort Dog enjoy the snow is a beautiful reminder of that.
