Therapy Thursday 🐾
If you haven’t met her yet, keep an eye out for our newest four legged trainee, K9 Lilly, who is currently working toward becoming our certified therapy dog.
Lilly has already begun training to help support both our officers and the members of our community through comfort, connection, and companionship. She also comes equipped with a highly specialized skill set, including expert-level treat detection, advanced tail-wagging tactics, suspicious squirrel surveillance, and professional-grade cuddles.
Even though her training is still underway, Lilly has already made a meaningful impact around both the department and the community, quickly becoming a familiar face and bringing smiles everywhere she goes.
We are excited to continue this journey with Lilly and look forward to the positive role she will play serving the Catskill community.
A special thank you to John Thomas of Hi-TEC K9 Academy for helping make this possible and for his continued guidance and support throughout Lilly’s training journey.
If you see K9 Lilly out and about during training, don’t hesitate to say hello and maybe get a couple pets in (with handler approval, of course)!
