Tad “The anti-therapy dog”

Tad, the “anti-therapy” dog: Tad was a Shih Tzu/Poodle mix, a.k.a. a Shih-poo. He came to me as a puppy with the idea (mine) that he would be a therapy dog, and add a sweet canine touch to my practice, which, in a unique way, he did. Tad had anxiety, about numerous things; big coats, hats, large purses….to name a few, but, mostly about getting used to new people. Tad’s philosophy was “unsafe until proven otherwise”.  Tad passed on  09/26/25,  he is gone but unforgettable!
