Lincolnshire dogs with jobs: Bear, the reading dog
Available for over a year
Meet Bear, a St.Bernard therapy dog who helps encourage children to read. Bear and his owner Jo visit schools as part of the Pets As Therapy Read2Dogs project, which develops children's literacy skills by giving them the confidence to read aloud. Sometimes it's easier to read to a big cuddly dog than to a person!
