WESTON, W.Va. – Therapy dogs have been introduced in elementary and middle schools throughout the state, but on June 2, the first West Virginia high school received its therapy dog.
Jasper, a female yellow lab therapy dog, is Lewis County High School’s new therapy dog.
First Lady Cathy Justice held a Pup Rally at Lewis County High School to celebrate the arrival of Jasper, a female yellow lab therapy dog. She told the students that if they had a bad day, and they came and hugged Jasper, then they would feel better and that the therapy dogs provide students a healthy outlet to address trauma and other issues.
