Shiloh's Fluffy Mission
Hi friends, it’s me, Shiloh!
I’m so excited to share that you can ask for me to join you during your therapy or nutrition sessions with my co-therapist, Kelsey, if you’d like a little extra comfort — and it won’t cost anything extra.
​
I’ve been working hard on my calm sits, gentle greetings, and my very best “good boy” manners, and now that I’m officially a therapy dog, I get to come to the office and spread all the fluffy joy I can.​
I never expected “therapy dog” to be my calling. I’m a rescue pup, so my early days were a little chaotic.
Then Kelsey found me, believed in me, and teamed up with my trainer Kay to help me discover my superpowers. Kay taught me how to use my natural sweetness to help humans feel safe and calm. Somewhere between the ear scratches, cozy blankets, and Kay cheering me on, I realized… oh. I love this helping‑humans thing.
​
Now I’m officially a therapy dog providing Animal‑Assisted Therapy, working as part of a therapy team with Kelsey through her certification as a Certified Animal‑Assisted Intervention Specialist through the Association of Animal-Assisted Intervention Professionals.
My job duties focus on being gentle, comforting, and—fine—I’m still working on not stealing snacks during serious moments. Research says dogs help humans feel calmer and more connected… but honestly, have you seen me?
​
Kelsey handles the important clinical work and keeps everyone safe—humans and me.
​
My job? Emotional fluff. Tail wags. Strategic snack acquisition. Together, we make a pretty great therapy team.
