Saturday was Certification Day for GO TEAM Madison! 🐾
Whether they were renewing their certifications or working toward becoming therapy dogs for the very first time, our teams spent the day sharpening their skills in real-world settings.
A huge thank you to Madison Metro, TSA and Dane County Airport, Sit Means Sit Madison, Silver Eagle in Monona, and the Cottage Grove Fire Station for welcoming our dogs and handlers during training. Your support helps our teams practice navigating busy environments, unexpected situations, and everyday interactions so they can confidently provide comfort wherever they’re needed most.
And to the new teams who joined in the training process this year—thank you for putting in the time, effort, and heart. We know how much work goes into the journey, and we’re cheering you on every step of the way.
It truly takes a community to support therapy dogs. Thank you to everyone who helps make this work possible. ❤️🐶

Gary the gentle giant made a special stop at Rock Haven, where his calm presence, soulful eyes, and trademark sneaky kisses brought plenty of smiles to residents and staff alike.
At 215 pounds, Gary may be one of our biggest therapy dogs, but those who meet him quickly discover he’s all heart. Whether he was soaking up pets, leaning in for affection, or simply sitting quietly beside a new friend, Gary made meaningful connections throughout the visit.
Thank you to everyone at Rock Haven for the warm welcome. We’re pretty sure Gary left with as many happy memories as the people he met! ❤️🐾

Lizzy, Max, and Pip had a paws-itively fun visit at Marshall Elementary School, where they helped students learn all about therapy dogs! 🐶📚
From answering thoughtful questions to showing off their calm and gentle personalities, the pups were wonderful ambassadors for the important work therapy dogs do in schools and communities. The students were curious, engaged, and full of great questions — and our dogs soaked up every bit of the attention along the way. ❤️
We love giving students a chance to learn not only what therapy dogs do, but also how kindness, connection, and a wagging tail can make a difference in someone’s day. 🐾
