F.E.T.C.H. Therapy Dog Team Spotlight

Ina and Wylie

 Ina and Wylie here.  I have been visiting with pugs since 2002.  Wylie is the sixth therapy pug I have had.  He started visiting in October of 2024 at just over a year old.  

We visit at Riverbend Hospital, Eugene Airport, Serbu Juvenile Detention Center and Oregon State Hospital at Junction City.  

Sharing my dogs with people is the very best thing I get to do.  Walking down a hallway in a facility and hearing people call for Wylie, seeing the youth in detention walk out of their room and grin when they realize it’s Wylie night, those things warm my heart. 

Wylie loves people.  He goes up to folks and sits right at their feet.  His signature move is his wave.  His little prance as we walk, his calm presence, and his soft fur make him a bit hit.  

In our spare time we take agility and obedience classes.  Wylie is working on training.
