Group: Pet Therapy Dogs

Hello everyone !!!

My Website was launched today so I'd love to invite all of you to visit.

Thanks for all the support.

Shelby Dwyer - Therapy dog

hey guys, here is the correct link for my Facebook Page !!!

Sorry !

Hi Everyone, my name is Shelby and I'm a therapy dog. As a pup I was abused and abandoned to die. I was found tied up in a gas station, in a very bad shape and I was taken to the Bloomfield Animal Shelter, where after 8 months of hard work and lots of love and care - I was adopted by one of its volunteers - my amazing owner Joe Dwyer. Joe trained me to be a therapy dog and today I work with so many children and adults in need. I love helping people and make them smile and show to the world that Pit Bulls are an amazing breed. Joe wrote a book about our life journey together that is coming out next month, in September. The book is called "Shelby's Grace" and I'm so excited about it. Also, my Website is in the works, it's coming out real soon. I will let you all know when it's up and running. I really hope you will support me and my work.

Do come and join my Facebook page

I appreciate all your support and I'm so glad to find more friends who are also therapy dogs !!!

Peace & love - Shelby

 We made our very own website, all about how we started our careers as pet therapy dogs and about our pet therapy visitation program, Pets on Wheels.    Please check out our website!  The address is:

To get there you will probably have to copy the address and paste it into your address bar.  Some of our pals have already checked it out and we thank you!

We are proud to be pet therapy dogs!

 Today we went to the Alzheimer's centers. It was great fun. Both buildings had big groups that invited us in.

 We've been doing lots of visiting! We had a great time at the Mechlenburg Health Care Center last weekend. This weekend coming up we are going to the Alzheimer's centers... 

 Wishing all pet therapy dogs and their people a very happy Valentine's day. Those that aren't in pet therapy, remember it doesn't have to limited to just dogs (even though we are #1! ) Cats, ferrets, at one of the places we visit, even a goat visits too. We ALL benefit those that are in hospitals, nursing homes...we call them living centers now, schools....the possiblities are endless. Think about it. It might be right for you!

Add Glitter to Pictures

  Hi Pals! We were very busy at work today! Mom brought her camera so she could take some pictures of us visiting. We dressed in our elf suits mom made for us. We had fun getting petted by lots of people. Everyone thought our suits were very festive! We will wear our santa suits for our Christmas eve visits. After we were done visiting we went to petsmart and had our photo taken with Santa Paws. We will put our santa photo on our bark to our pals. Merry Christmas!! wags and licks, Paladin and Grayson
