Therapy Dog Visits

He enjoys interacting with people of all ages and welcomes pats, hugs and conversation. Rudy's mission is to spread kindness and joy to anyone who wants or needs time with a therapy dog.
Reading with Rudy
The Reading with Rudy program started at a local library in 2023. Young readers ages 5-9 spend time reading and connecting with Rudy. Rudy listens while the children read to him and describe the images on the pages. Often, he will reach out with a paw or the children will instinctly touch him or rest their head on him. Sweet moments for sure!
