RENLY, Chief Moral Officer, CGC, CGCA, CGCU, AKC Trick Dog
RENLY, or ‘RENLY-Rae’ as we call her, is a ray of sunshine for all who meet her. She is a black English Labrador Retriever trained and place with us from PAWS With A Cause. RENLY’s birthday is December 21, 2020. She’s a working dog, like a guide dog or mobility assistance dog, but instead of working with one person, she works with many people. A Facility Dog’s primary job is to help make people feel safe and confident. RENLY started working at Rush Pediatric Neuropsychology and Grand River Rehabilitation in January 2023. Since then, she has achieved additional training certifications, including the AKC Canine Good Citizen® (CGC), AKC Community Canine (CGCA) an advanced certification, AKC Urban Canine Good Citizen (CGCU), and AKC Trick Dog. We hope our patients will look forward to their appointments and seeing their furry friend.
It takes a lot to raise and train a Facility Dog. Thousands of hours of volunteers’ time ... and thousands of dollars. Caring for patients with disabilities is our passion, and providing a trained Facility Dog has a huge impact.
