After the tragic school shooting in Santa Fe, the community rallied to support the friends and families of those lost and injured that fateful day. At times like these, for some, dogs offer great comfort. After joining other therapy dogs there, Christi, whose Lone Star Labradoodle named Gus had provided love and companionship to those affected, wrote me this kind note.
Lanie –
I wanted to update you on Gus and let you know that he is bringing such comfort in times of grief/stress.
Gus (from Godiva/Gibson) is a certified crisis response dog (and a registered therapy dog). He recently has spent several days with the families/faculty/students of those involved in the tragic events in Santa Fe. He comforted the families that lost loved ones. He was there when the faculty went back to the school for the first time since the incident and walked the halls with them to give them a sense of security. He spent several days in the junior high/elementary comforting students that were stressed and needed to visit with counselors or just wanted a friendly face.
He is doing amazing work. Thank you for breeding such an amazing dog! He truly is a gift and brings joy to so many every day.
Blessings,
Ms. C. K.
