Do you want to hang out with the sweetest dog ever? Come meet Rolo at the Salmon Arm library. Rolo is a miniature poodle and a certified St. John’s Ambulance Therapy Dog. He loves to be read to, petted and talked to. Rachel, his human, is also there to answer questions you may have about Rolo, therapy dogs, and more.

You can sign up for one-on-one sessions or drop-in and see if Rolo and Rachel are free for a chat.

**Please include your email address when registering to get your confirmation email as well as the link to cancel if need be. (You may be asked to verify your email address if it's your first time registering for a program online.)**

Small Meeting Room 3

Practice your reading skills by registering for a free 20-minute session to read with a certified St. John's Ambulance therapy dog! For ages 6 to 12.

Session times available are:

3:30 PM to 3:50 PM

4:00 PM to 4:20 PM

4:30 PM to 5:00 PM

When registering online, it will appear that you are registering for a 30 minute session, but the last 10 minutes of the session block are to provide a break for our dog. Sessions are only 20 minutes long.

Research shows that reading to a dog is tremendously motivational for kids and provides a calming, relaxed environment for children who may feel hesitant or anxious about reading.

Kids must be school-aged, able to read some words on their own, and feel comfortable reading with a dog and the dog’s adult handler.
