Greater Pasco Chamber Wake-Up Membership Breakfast at Plantation Palms Golf Club, in Land O' Lakes
Everyone enjoyed a breakfast buffet while networking with other Greater Pasco Chamber Members and heard a fantastic presentation from this month's guest speaker: Pasco Sheriff's Charities Cpl. Madden with Animal-Assisted Therapy K9 Woodie. The group learned more about the amazing PSO organization and all they do for our community.
AAT K9 Woodie is a one-year-old female Plott Hound serving in the Community Engagement Unit with her partner Cpl. Madden. AAT K9 Woodie is the first Plott Hound to join the PSO K9 family and one of only a few female K9s.
AAT K9 Woodie was rescued from a shelter and selected by Brevard County Sheriff’s Office to join their “Paws & Stripes” program. In this program, inmates learn valuable life skills while teaching dogs to be calm and confident companions.
As an Animal-Assisted Therapy dog, AAT K9 Woodie accompanies her handler on calls for service to comfort those experiencing a crisis and reduce stress. AAT K9 Woodie loves meeting people and making them smile, making her perfect for helping those experiencing a crisis. To learn more, visit: https://pascosheriffcharities.org/
