Dot Leroy Brown, RTA
Registered Therapy Animal
Dwight and his dog; Dot support the clients with a therapy animal bond.
Dot Leroy Brown is a 10 year old black lab mix. He was 4 years old when he crossed paths with Dwight at the local animal shelter. Dot sat at the shelter for a long time; He was close to running out of time as his behavior was rated poorly due to his background, separation anxiety and time spent in the shelter. Dot’s smile and stubby legs stood out. He proved himself 1000x over to be the best snuggler and loyal rider. When Dot and Dwight were evaluated by Pet Partners to become an official therapy team, Dot earned the highest marks and handled everything like a superstar. The poetic justice in his story is how a $30 dog turned into a priceless treasure. Dot enjoys hiking mountains, running, curling up by the fire with a good book, cuddles, and watching squirrels. Dot is excited to em-’bark’ on his new journey as a therapy dog.
