Dobby was found hairless and full of mange with open sores at only a few months old. His rescuers got him the medical attention needed and fostered him for nearly 18months until Dobby found his fur-ever home! Dobby is also trained as a sniffer dog and can find everything from lost people to lost tennis balls!
Lacy is a local mixed breed who was abandon and found by Nevis Animal Speak. Her SUPER friendly and gentle nature made her Therapy Dog training a real pleasure. Lacy LOVES everyone! People, cats, dogs and more! She is gentle, loves playing fetch and enjoys getting treats for a job well done! The smallest and happiest of our team, Lacy is quickly becoming a favorite with all she meets!
Ninja is a local mixed breed who was abandoned in a field and left tied to a tree to die. Even though Ninja was starving when he was found, he ignored the food offered focusing only on his need for human contact. Realizing his special connection with people, Ninja was brought back to health, tested and trained for Therapy Dog work. Following his first successful year of being a Therapy Dog in 2014, Ninja's keen senses have been further trained to support his handler, Janice, as her Medical Service dog. Ninja enjoys traveling and teaching around the world!

Bearette was adopted at 4 months old after being found alone in the woods. She was a smart and playful puppy who was very athletic and an excellent swimmer.
Although originally trained as a Therapy Dog, Bearette also doubles as a medical Medical Service dog for her handler Janice. Bearette has taught in the US, Hong Kong, Mexico and Nevis. We are thrilled she is sharing her kind and gentle nature with the many people she visits around around the world!
RIP August 5, 2021
