What's up dog?
R Tee attends school with me and is a support for the diagnosed children in my class. His calming nature helps these kids to better regulate their emotions and gives them an opportunity to just relax and chill with him. There is no pressure on them and he is happy to just be with them. He supports the kids to attend activities within the school that may otherwise be difficult. When they are anxious, he relaxes them. He will participate in their activities and brings delight to the kids with his crazy antics. He is very loyal and knows who to sit with in the class. R Tee is also a support to the other staff in the school. Always looking for a pat from anyone and just an overall loving dog.
