Meet Zailey
Our Therapy Dog
Our Zailey Girl
Zailey is a gentle, sensitive, and playful Australian Shepherd who loves being around all kinds of people.
Whether you're in need of a playmate or some comfort, she's always ready to sit with you or curl up at your feet. If feeling overwhelmed, Zailey will help ground you with the present moment.
Her favourite toy is a teddy and she LOVES playing fetch. Zailey will often end her work day in her favourite sleeping position—upside down!
