Meet North!
North is our seven-year-old female German Shepherd and one of the special dogs who helps make Dawgs at Work what it is today. She lives with our Lead Trainer and serves as both a therapy dog and a mentor dog within our program.
As a therapy dog, North regularly visits schools, assisted living communities, and other facilities where she provides comfort, companionship, and plenty of smiles. Her calm, steady personality makes her a wonderful ambassador for the important work therapy dogs do e-very day.
When she’s not out making visits, North takes on another important role behind the scenes. As one of our mentor dogs, she helps guide incoming puppies as they learn appropriate dog manners, social skills, and etiquette. From teaching respectful interactions to helping young dogs build confidence, North plays a valuable role in shaping the next generation of working dogs.
Outside of work, North enjoys the simple things in life. Her favorite treats are cheese snacks, and when Wisconsin weather cooperates, you’ll often find her enjoying time out on the boat with her family or competing in dog sports like Fast CAT!
Thank you, North, for everything you do for our clients, our community, and the puppies who look up to you every day.
