Whiskey, Ember and Brandy with Harriet

HARRIET SCHLEIFER

Harriet Schleifer is owned by two Shetland Sheepdogs, Brandy (Banquise’s Brandy’s Touch) and her puppy, Astra (Herdabout Supernova Dream).
 
Together, they are involved in many canine sports and Brandy has won numerous titles (CGN, PCD, CD, AGN, AGJ, RAE, AKC Therapy Dog Excellent). Harriet recently became a CKC Rally judge. She teaches Rally, Agility, Freestyle and Scent Detection, and has been training her own dogs for 15 years.
 
She is the founder of Imagine Therapy dogs, and also teaches the Therapy Dog Preparation classes. Harriet believes that dog sports deepen and enhance our relationships with our dogs and should bring joy to both participants. Her dogs particularly love their work as certified therapy dogs.​

Max the therapy dog

pierre milot

HA !  Parfait, juste en arrière des oreilles! Je m'appelle Max, je suis un chien de thérapie. J'adore toute cette attention que me donnent ces étudiants. Il y a beaucoup de stresse durant les examens et j'espère pouvoir aider. J'écoute, je me cole et surtout je me laisse flatter, mais tout ce qu'on me dit, c'est un secret professionnel, je ne peut rien dévoiler.

tamara frishling

Tamara Frishling is part of an elite crew of Shetland Sheepdogs. This crew enjoys many dog sports together such as competition  obedience, agility and Rally-O, and they all light up in official trials. Tamara and her loyal pups have a special bond and  are very passionate about helping others and enjoy "paying it forward" by spreading the canine love. Members of this crew are fully certified therapy dogs for both adults and children and love every second of it. Since 2014 this team has been actively involved with Imagine Therapy Dogs, (formerly Blue Ribbon Therapy Dogs), both in its administration and through therapy visits.

Sunny at Bibliothèque Le Prévost

Ann-Renée Garneau

Ann-Renée is my human. She's a teacher and part of the coordinating team of Imagine Therapy Dogs. 

Sometimes, she takes me to school with her. I really enjoy working with children. They love to pet me and read me stories. Sometimes, they even read bedtime stories in the middle of the day. They do such a good job that I occasionally fall asleep... We also teach children about dogs and good behavior to have when meeting them.

I love doing all sorts of visits, meeting people, being active and offer moral support to my humans. 

I hope our paths cross someday!
