Cara Zelas is an early childhood teacher. While her dog, Little Dude, has changed her life in several ways – she's not the only one he's impacted. After training him to be a therapy dog through the Good Dog Foundation, they connected her with hospitals and schools to visit children and adults dealing with the trauma of disease, disability, and disaster. Little Dude provided them a level of comfort and relief during their hard times. Seeing that impact inspired Cara to bring Little Dude into more classrooms and use a dog, which kids always love, as a way to teach kids about kindness, empathy, and more. That our actions matter and even one little thing can make a big difference. She was inspired to write a set of curriculum and books around these findings and lessons, which she also shares online for parents (and other teachers) to be able to use for learning with their own kids – which are especially helpful when parents are trying to work on educational activities with their kids at home.SOCIAL MEDIAWebsite - https://www.dogsavethepeople.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dogsavethepeople/Twitter - https://twitter.com/dogsavethepplFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/dogsavethepeopleFEATURED LINKSThe Big World of Little Dude website - https://www.worldoflittledude.comThe Big World of Little Dude on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/worldoflittledudeThe Big World of Little Dude on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/worldoflittledudeWeekly Online Lesson Plans - https://www.worldoflittledude.com/product-category/lesson-plansThe Good Dog Foundation website - http://thegooddogfoundation.orgThe Good Dog Foundation on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/gooddogtherapyThe Good Dog Foundation on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/thegooddogfoundationThe Good Dog Foundation on Twitter - https://twitter.com/GoodDogTherapyCollaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) website - https://casel.org

Volunteers for the Good Dog Foundation bring their trained dogs to health facilities and elsewhere to improve recovery rates through canine uplift. Rachel McPherson, Founder and Executive Director, discusses humanitarian tasks these specially trained dogs do for people. Some even work in classrooms with students having difficulty learning. Ms. McPherson became interested in this subject while producing a documentary on therapy dog services several years ago. She dropped the film project and created The Good Dog Foundation, which helped change New York State law to allow therapy dogs into health care facilities. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/radiorotary/support

Dr. Debbie is prepared to answer all of your questions about almost every kind of animal. That's why she's at the top of her game. Today it's all about Chinchillas.

Cow Spa Produces More Milk We found a dairy farmer that's pampering his cows in order to produce more milk.
