O.U.R. Aftercare support is always expanding, and we are excited to announce that Green Valley Australian Shepherds just donated a second dog that will be placed in a partnering aftercare home once he is trained as an emotional support animal! We are forever grateful to Jeff and Emily Mabey, the owner and operators at Green Valley Australian Shepherds, for raising these angels and donating them to survivors in need. Animal therapy has the opportunity to directly impact a survivor's experience in the aftercare home. The dog's ability to comfort, help, and love on survivors as an emotional support animal is vital to creating an environment where a survivor feels emotionally supported and safe. Upon arriving at an aftercare home, it can be daunting and overwhelming to enter into a new environment, where you aren’t familiar with who will be caring for you. Research shows that having a dog there, that you can connect with your very first night helps one feel at peace, safe, and comforted. O.U.R. is beyond excited for the continued partnership with Green Valley Aussies and is looking forward to growing and expanding the animal therapy program to new aftercare homes in the future. Thank you again to @GreenValleyAussies for donating these sweet puppies to survivors in need! We couldn’t do it without you.
