This Wolf Is Training To Be A Therapy Dog

Nayeli is great with people. In fact, she’s trying to become a therapy dog. But there’s something different about Nayeli. She’s actually more wolf than dog!

Nayeli lives at the non-profit Wolf Run Wildlife Sanctuary in Nicholasville, Kentucky, and she’s going to school at Sit Means Sit in Lexington to earn her certification to be a therapy dog. This would allow her to do anything from work on television and movie sets to visiting patients in the hospital.

The year-old wolf dog’s training will run for six months, though it’s pretty expensive for the non-profit sanctuary. They are currently raising funds to cover the cost of Nayeli’s schooling. If they can, who knows? Maybe you’ll see Nayeli on the big screen!
