VOLUNTEERS ARE GOING TO THE DOGS
Book Motivates and Inspires
Dog Lovers to Volunteer
Henderson, Nevada, November 1, 2009/–Judy McFadden wrote Life with McDuff: Lessons Learned from a Therapy Dog about nine years of her life with an extraordinary Scottish terrier therapy dog. She believes the book will encourage dog lovers worldwide, especially baby boomers and retirees with spare time, to volunteer in therapy dog and animal assisted reading programs.
As a certified Therapy Dogs International volunteer, Judy walked with this amazing creature on his mission and witnessed his supernatural impact on individuals and animals during and outside of his therapy dog work. McDuff stayed on the job — even after death.
McDuff taught Judy valuable life lessons and provided his special brand of therapy during:
• domestic violence incident in which she encountered a brilliant white light
• bitter divorce
• mother’s home invasion, hospitalization, and decision to disconnect life support
• precedent-setting jury trial that received local and AP coverage
Dog lovers everywhere regardless of age, religion, race, or culture can relate to the lessons McDuff taught in Life with McDuff: Lessons Learned from a Therapy Dog. He taught:
• unconditional love
• forgiveness
• looking beyond appearances
• nonresistance
• enjoying life to the fullest
• unselfish service to others
