Wendy Goldstein, author and therapy dog owner, tells Dr. Danger and Super Eddie what a therapy dog is and what important characteristics a dog must have to become a therapy dog. She describes Oscar's routine before and after he visits kids who are in the hospital. Wendy tells us how she knew Oscar was meant to become a therapy dog, and some of the impacts he has had in his visits.
You can learn how Oscar trained for his therapy dog test--and what happened on test day--in Wendy's book, Oscar's Blue Bandana. It's available as an ebook or in print. Oscar also has an Instagram account: @oscar_myhavanese.
