On "World Mental Health Day" we had the pleasure of visiting the Sydney Spotify Office to help share some puppy love with the staff 💝🐶

Buddha, our (big teddy bear) Therapy Dog, lapped up all the staff's smiles, endless pats, and even earned some treats from them.

Contact us today to have Buddha come visit you too!

Buddha running through his basic obedience and Assistance Dog Tasks.

You will see here that Buddha interrupts the leg scratching, hand fidgeting, and nail biting which can sometimes be associated to anxiety and/or oncoming PTSD episodes.

Here we see Buddha doing the unconscious scratching interruption task for me. This helps when people are feeling anxious or their anxiety flares up in situations. Once aware the handler usually decides to remove self from the situation and/or go into a DPT task.

Unfortunately, due to the current Covid-19, I am unable to offer in-person training.

However, we can offer online FaceTime sessions so help walk you through the training so you are able to do it yourself!

I teach how to "heel" so that there is no pulling and you can comfortably walk hands free 😄 comes in handy if you have children walking with you.

"Mat" is one of the many basic trainings we teach at Graceful Dog Training.
It is the pups safe space to relax.
Here we have Buddha (black GSD cross) and Emma (Am. Staff. X Pit Bull) relaxing.
