Bodhi is a Siberian Husky that provides emotional comfort to clients at Hearten Counseling.  Bodhi provides affection, comfort, and support to clients who need it.  According to the American Kennel Club, "Therapy dogs bring many physical benefits to the humans they visit. They may help lower blood pressure and heart rate, reduce patient anxiety, and increase levels of endorphins and oxytocin. But it’s not a one-way street. Studies have shown that therapy dogs also profit from their work. Rates of endorphins and oxytocin are higher in therapy dogs than average family pets".

​

When Bodhi is not in the office, Bodhi enjoys playing with his human brothers and sister as well as other animal siblings at home.  Bodhi loves long walks, play dates at the dog park, all the treats and taking long naps.  

​

Bodhi has earned his AKC Good Canine Citizen certification and AKC Novice Tricks.
