Canines 4 Comfort

We’re thrilled to introduce Dr. Erica Berger, the brilliant mind behind Princess Polly, our dazzling facility comfort dog for D76 schools. Dr. Berger’s recent induction into the prestigious Marquis Who’s Who Biographical Registry is a testament to her exceptional work. We’re incredibly proud to partner with Dr. Berger as Polly continues to sparkle and shine, bringing joy, comfort, and support to students and staff in our schools. #Canines4Comfort #RelationshipsThatHell #D76 #TherapyDogsatSchool #MarquisWhoIsWho #SparkleOn
