Super Rudy - The Tail of a Certified Therapy Dog

     Rudy is a 6 year old shetland sheepdog who assists me (or I assist him) in my fifth grade classroom.  Rudy is a certified therapy dog.  He loves to listen to children read.  Rudy receives approximately 20 letter per week from his students.  He works very hard to answer each letter personally!
     Recently, three of his students, Conner, Jordan, and Arieous,  have started a comic book series, The Adventures of Super Rudy.  Here is  a glimpse of their awesome work!

       One of Rudy's many talents is playing video games.  He must also work- out because he clearly has 6-pack abs!
 


                                                    "His cape is magic.  Anything he want comes true!"


                                                    In "Super Rudy 2", Rudy meets Super Rudy Girl who is pink.

     Super heroes are real, and sometimes, they are covered in fur!  If you would like to know more about therapy dogs check out this website:  http://www.domesti-pups.org/.

  1. What a great comic book series! I have a collie, who is a larger version of a shetland sheepdog (sheltie?). I've thought he would make a great therapy dog, if he had the right training.

    By the way, we are practically neighbors...I grew up and live in Bellevue!
