Matt wears a white shirt and blue jeans. He is in his twenties. His curly black hair is shoulder length. Matt waves, then pets a tan Chihuahua.
Laura reads a book as she sits on a mat in the tree fort floor. Laura wears a black shirt, dark blue jeans and headphones.
Matt says, HEY, TVOKIDS, I'M HANGING
OUT HERE IN THE TREE FORT
WITH MY DOG, HENRY,
AND LAURA, BUT I GOTTA TELL YOU,
THERE'S BEEN SOME KIND OF
WEIRD STUFF GOING ON
IN THE TREE FORT TODAY.
I'VE BEEN HEARING
SOME VERY STRANGE SOUNDS.
LAURA, HAVE YOU BEEN
HEARING THESE SOUNDS?
Laura says, HUH?
OH, UH. HEY, TVOKIDS.
I'M NOT SURE WHAT SOUNDS
MATT IS TALKING ABOUT,
BUT, MATT, I'M KIND OF LISTENING
TO MY FAVOURITE SONG RIGHT NOW.
SO, I WAS HOPING I COULD JUST,
LIKE, ROCK OUT TO IT.
DO YOU MIND IF I...
Matt says, OH, BUT I KIND OF NEEDED YOUR
HELP WITH THE SOUND THING.
Laura interrupts Matt, I KNOW, BUT I JUST REALLY WANT
TO LISTEN TO MY FAVOURITE SONG. OKAY, BYE.
Matt says, UH, OKAY. SO, I GUESS
LAURA CAN'T HELP ME OUT WITH
FINDING WHERE THE SOUND
IS COMING FROM.
SO, I'LL HAVE TO
DO IT ON MY OWN.
OKAY, I'LL HAVE TO
GO LOOK FOR IT.
IF YOU HEAR THE SOUND,
LET ME KNOW, OKAY?
HM. WHERE IS THIS
SOUND COMING FROM?
(Mooing sound)
THAT WAS IT, TVOKIDS!
THAT WAS THE SOUND!
DID YOU HEAR IT?
YEAH, I HEARD IT, TOO!
BUT I CAN'T ASK LAURA
TO HELP ME FIND IT
BECAUSE SHE'S
LISTENING TO HER MUSIC.
OKAY, I'VE GOT TO FIGURE OUT--
HENRY, DO YOU KNOW WHERE
THE SOUND IS COMING FROM?
COULDN'T BE HENRY. OKAY, UH.
YOU LET ME KNOW IF YOU KNOW
WHERE THIS SOUND IS COMING FROM.
UH.
(Mooing sound)
Matt exclaims, THAT WAS IT!
THAT WAS THE SOUND, TVOKIDS.
(Groaning sound)
Matt says, I WISH LAURA WOULD HELP ME.
OH, BROTHER. I JUST-- I DON'T
KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO DO.
I'M SO CURIOUS. I GOTTA KNOW
WHERE THIS SOUND IS COMING FROM.
I'M GOING TO MAKE A PLAN.
Matt staggers backwards. Laura looks surprised.
(Mooing sound)
Laura says, WHOA!
UH, WHAT WAS THAT?
Matt asks, YOU HEARD IT?
Laura says, YEAH, IT WAS REALLY LOUD
AND I THINK IT WAS COMING FROM
INSIDE THE TREE FORT.
Matt says, IT WAS COMING FROM
INSIDE THE TREE FORT.
Matt and Laura say, BUT--
Laura says, HOW WOULD A COW GET
INTO A TREE FORT?
I MEAN, IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE!
A COW WOULD HAVE TO
GO INTO A FOREST--
Matt says, LAURA?
Laura continues, WHICH COWS ARE NOT IN
THE FOREST IN THE FIRST PLACE,
AND THEN IT WOULD HAVE TO CLIMB
UP TO THE TOP OF A TREE--
Matt says, LAURA? LAURA!
Laura says, --WHICH HOW COULD THAT
EVEN HAPPEN? IT HAS HOOVES!
I JUST DON'T--
Matt says, I THINK THE SOUND
IS COMING FROM...
Matt and Laura say, HENRY?
(Mooing sound)
Matt says, WHOA!
BUT, HENRY, WHY ARE YOU MOOING?
YOU'RE A DOG!
YOU-- YOU'RE NOT SURE IF
BEING A DOG IS FOR YOU ANYMORE
AND YOU WANT TO TRY OUT
BEING DIFFERENT ANIMALS?
BUT-- BUT WHY?
YOU'RE SO GOOD AT BEING A DOG.
Laura says, I MEAN, I DO AGREE.
HENRY IS GREAT AT BEING A DOG,
BUT IF HE WANTS TO EXPLORE BEING
DIFFERENT KINDS OF ANIMALS,
WE SHOULD TOTALLY LET HIM.
Matt says, WE SHOULD?
Laura says, YEAH!
IT'S AWESOME, RIGHT, HENRY?
Matt says, UH, I MEAN, BUT HENRY'S MY DOG.
Laura says, I KNOW, BUT THINK OF ALL
THE OTHER ANIMALS HENRY CAN BE!
(Frog horn)
Matt says, OKAY.
WELL, I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THIS,
BUT I'M GOING TO
ANSWER THE PHONE.
Matt puts on headphones.
Matt says, TREE FORT. MATT SPEAKING.
CALLER, WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
Sahlah says, HI, MY NAME IS SAHLAH

Matt says, SAHLAH, NICE TO MEET YOU.
HEY, WHAT'S THE PASSWORD TODAY?
Sahlah says, UM, BONE.
Matt says, BONE. THAT'S CORRECT.
I'M PUTTING YOU IN THE SKY.
Sahlah, age 8, wears black headphones. Her black hair is pulled away from her face. A line of stuffed dogs sits on the top of a sofa behind her.
Laura says, HEY, SAHLAH!
WELCOME TO THE TREE FORT!
HOW ARE YOU TODAY?
Sahlah says, GOOD.
Laura says, AMAZING. OKAY, SAHLAH,
SOME WEIRD STUFF GOING ON

Sahlah says, UM, HIS NAME IS FRIENDLY.
HE'S THE BEST PLUSH...
BECAUSE HE'S SO FRIENDLY,

Laura says, OH, THAT IS AN INCREDIBLE
DRAWING, SAHLAH.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
SHARING THAT WITH US.
BUT I THINK WE WANT TO LOOK AT
SOME CUTE VIDEOS, RIGHT, MATT?
Matt says, I THINK WE DO!
HOW'S THAT SOUND? CAN WE SHOW

Sahlah says, YES.
Matt says, OKAY, LET'S SEE IT.
A male announcer says, CHAMPION.
A dolphin jumps out of water.
(Laura gasping)
MATT: GORGEOUS.
Laura says, WOW.
Matt says, STUNNING, MAJESTIC.
SAHLAH, HEY-- WHAT WOULD YOU--
WHAT DO YOU THINK
ABOUT THAT DOLPHIN?
WHAT WOULD YOU GIVE
THAT OUT OF 10?
Sahlah says, I THINK I WOULD GIVE IT
A NINE OUT OF 10.
Laura and Matt say, NINE OUT OF 10!
Laura says, VERY GOOD SCORE FOR THE DOLPHIN!
OKAY, SAHLAH.
LET'S CHECK OUT THE CHALLENGER.
A male announcer says, CHALLENGER.
A small dog in a bicycle basket, wears sunglasses and a hat. A person wearing black pants with white polka dots pedals the bike.
Laura, gasping, OH, I LOVE IT.
Matt says, THAT LOOKS LIKE THAT COULD BE
HENRY'S LONG-LOST BROTHER.
Laura says, IT DOES! AND LOOK AT THAT,
ANOTHER MAJESTIC RIDE IN THE BIKE.
I LOVE THIS.
SAHLAH, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Sahlah says, I THINK I WOULD GIVE IT
A 10 OUT OF 10!
Matt and Laura say, 10 OUT OF 10!
Laura says, YOU HEAR THAT, HENRY?
Matt says, THE DOGS WIN,
BECAUSE DOGS ARE SO AWESOME.
SAHLAH, THANKS SO MUCH FOR
HELPING US OUT WITH THAT,
WITH CHOOSING THE NEW CHAMPION.
IT WAS GREAT TO MEET YOU.
Matt looks at Sahlah.
Matt and Laura wave and say, THANKS, SAHLAH!
Matt says, AND WE LOVED YOUR PICTURES.
WE'LL TALK TO YOU SOON, OKAY?
Sahlah says, BYE!
Laura says, BYE, SAHLAH!
Matt says, BYE!
Laura says, THANK YOU!
Matt says, SEE, HENRY? THAT WAS SO COOL,
AND I-- I DON'T KNOW
IF YOU NOTICED, BUT THE DOG
HAPPENED TO BE THE CHAMPION.
CLEARLY PEOPLE REALLY LIKE DOGS.
DOESN'T THAT JUST MAKE YOU
WANNA GO FETCH OR CATCH A BONE
OR A FRISBEE OR SOMETHING?
Henry wags his tail.
Laura says, OKAY.
WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT, HENRY?
HERE'S THE THING, WE WILL
SUPPORT YOU NO MATTER WHAT,
BUT I DO KNOW A REALLY COOL
DOG EXPERT THAT MIGHT MAKE YOU
BE REALLY INSPIRED TO
STAYING A DOG FOREVER.
HOW DOES THAT SOUND?
Matt says, YEAH? OKAY? SOUNDS COOL?
Laura says, OKAY, CHECK IT OUT,
I HAVE GOT SUE HERE FROM
THERAPEUTIC PAWS OF CANADA
WITH HER THERAPY DOG, CHUCK!
HEY, SUE!
Sue wears a red shirt with a round Therapeutic Paws of Canada logo on one side. Strands of her blond hair hang around her face. Most of her hair is pulled back. She sits on a brown sofa and a painting of a horse leaning over a fence, hangs on the wall behind her. Sue feeds treats to a chocolate Labrador retriever.
Sue says, HI!
Laura says, WELCOME TO THE TREE FORT.
WE SEE YOU'VE GOT
CHUCK THERE, TOO.
HOW ARE YOU TWO TODAY?
Sue says, WE ARE WONDERFUL
AND WE'RE SO PLEASED TO BE
WITH YOU HERE TODAY.
Laura says, YES, WE'RE SO EXCITED
TO HAVE YOU.
CAN WE JUST GET RIGHT TO IT?
CAN YOU TELL THE TVOKIDS WHAT
IS THERAPEUTIC PAWS OF CANADA?
Sue says, ABSOLUTELY.
THERAPEUTIC PAWS OF CANADA
IS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION
OF CERTIFIED VOLUNTEERS WHO,
WITH THEIR DOGS OR CATS,
MAKE REGULAR VISITS TO
SENIORS' RESIDENCES,
HOSPITALS, SCHOOLS, LIBRARIES,
AND A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT PLACES.
Laura says, AWESOME, AND, SUE,
FOR THE TVOKIDS
WHO MIGHT NOT KNOW,
WHAT EXACTLY IS
A THERAPY DOG?
Sue says, THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
A THERAPY DOG, SUCH AS CHUCK,
IS A DOG WHO'S BEEN
TESTED TO BE ABLE TO GO
INTO DIFFERENT PLACES,
MEET DIFFERENT PEOPLE,
BE VERY COMFORTABLE AROUND
WHEELCHAIRS AND LITTLE CHILDREN
IN A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT SCENARIOS.
SO, THEY GET TESTED, AND ONCE THEY'RE
APPROVED TO GO IN,
THEN THEY'RE ALLOWED
TO JUST GO AND VISIT.
Laura says, I LOVE THAT SO MUCH.
WHO WOULDN'T WANT
A VISIT FROM A DOG?
SUE, I WANT TO KNOW,
WHY DO YOU THINK DOGS MAKE
SUCH GREAT COMPANIONS
FOR HUMANS?
Sue says, WELL, YOU KNOW, THE HUMAN
AND ANIMAL BOND IS SO IMPORTANT
BECAUSE ANIMALS PROVIDE COMFORT,
AND OFTENTIMES
A TEMPORARY DISTRACTION
FROM EVERY DAY
STRESSES AND PROBLEMS.
YOU KNOW, THEY, UM--
PEOPLE ALWAYS FEEL BETTER WHEN
THEY'RE AROUND DOGS,
AND OFTEN WE CAN SEE IT
ON THEIR FACES IN
THE FORM OF A BIG SMILE.
Matt says, AW.
Laura says, YES!
Matt says, AND DO YOU THINK MY DOG, HENRY,
COULD BE A GOOD
THERAPY DOG ONE DAY?
Sue says, I THINK HE WOULD MAKE
A WONDERFUL THERAPY DOG.
HE'S ALREADY
FREELANCING FOR YOU.
Laura says, YEAH! CHECK IT OUT!
Matt says, THAT'S AWESOME.
AND WE WERE WONDERING,
WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE THING
ABOUT YOUR DOG, CHUCK?
Sue says, WELL, OH.
THE LIST IS TOO LONG,
SO I'LL MAKE IT REALLY SHORT.
UM, THIS IS A WONDERFUL DOG WHO
I'VE TRAINED TO PARTICIPATE IN
A LOT OF ACTIVITIES. WE DO--
WE DO DIFFERENT COMPETITIONS.
WE DO TRICKS, BUT THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING IS HE'S ALWAYS
WITH ME, HE'S ALWAYS, YOU KNOW,
JUST THERE FOR ME TO ENJOY,
AND HE'S AN AMAZING FRIEND.
Laura says, I LOVE THAT SO MUCH.
AN AMAZING FRIEND.
Matt says, DOGS REALLY DO MAKE
AWESOME, AWESOME FRIENDS.
I'VE GOT A DOG FRIEND,
I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A DOG FRIEND,
AND NOW WE HAVE
A NEW FRIEND IN YOU.
IT WAS SO GREAT
TO MEET YOU TODAY.
Sue says, AND LIKEWISE! IT WAS WONDERFUL.
Matt says, THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
Laura says, THANKS SO MUCH, SUE!
BYE, SUE! BYE, CHUCK!
Matt says, BYE!
Laura says, THAT WAS AWESOME,
AND, YOU KNOW WHAT, MATT?
THAT ACTUALLY REMINDED ME
THAT A FEW YEARS AGO,
I GOT TO MEET SOME
GUIDE DOGS IN TRAINING.
Matt says, YOU DID?
Laura says, I TOTALLY DID!
Matt says, DOGS WITH JOBS!
Laura says, CHECK IT OUT!
Laura holds a black puppy.
Laura wears a red shirt as she holds the squirming puppy. A woman with black hair pulled back into a ponytail stands beside her. The woman wears a black tee shirt over a shirt with long white sleeves. The woman holds a yellow puppy.
Laura says, HEY, TVOKIDS, I AM HERE AT
THE LIONS FOUNDATION OF CANADA
DOG GUIDES, AND I'M WITH
SAM, NIAH, AND NILES,
AND I'M PRETTY EXCITED.
SAM, CAN YOU TELL ME A LITTLE
BIT ABOUT WHAT YOU GUYS DO HERE?
Sam says, YEAH, SO, AT DOG GUIDES
WE TRAIN DOG GUIDES
FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.
THESE GUYS ARE
JUST STARTING OUT,
BUT IN ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF
THEY'RE GOING TO BE
WORKING WITH A PARTNER,
HELPING THEM TO GAIN
MORE INDEPENDENCE.
Laura says, AMAZING. SO, THEY'RE GOING
TO START ACTUALLY WORKING
THOSE JOBS IN, LIKE,
A YEAR AND A HALF.
Sam says, YEAH.
Laura says, SO, CAN YOU TELL ME A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT WHAT THE TRAINING'S LIKE?
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO
BECOME A GUIDE DOG?
Sam says, SO, THESE GUYS,
FOR THE NEXT YEAR,
THEY'RE GOING TO BE LIVING WITH
A FAMILY, LEARNING THE BASICS,
GOOD MANNERS, SOCIALIZATION,
AND OBEDIENCE,
AND THEN ADD A YEAR,
THEY'LL COME BACK HERE
TO LEARN SOME SPECIALIZED
TASKS TO HELP THEIR PARTNER.
Laura says, COOL! SO, THEY KIND OF
GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS,
THEY LEARN TO SIT,
BECOME A GOOD DOG,
AND THEN THEY CAN START
THEIR REAL GUIDE DOG--
Sam says, FORMAL TRAINING, YEAH.
Laura says, RIGHT.
COOL. SO, WHAT ARE
THE PROGRAMS LIKE?
WHO DO THESE GUIDE DOGS HELP?
Sam says, WE HAVE A LOT OF
DIFFERENT PROGRAMS.
CANINE VISION, HEARING EAR,
SERVICE, SEIZURE RESPONSE,
AUTISM ASSISTANCE,
AND DIABETIC ALERT.
NOT SURE YET WHERE THESE
GUYS ARE GOING TO GO.
Laura says, WOW, OKAY. SO, THEY KIND
OF HAVE TO FIND OUT WHAT
THEIR JOURNEY IS
AND SEE WHERE THEY END UP.
Sam says, YUP.
Laura says, AWESOME. SO, CAN ANY DOG
BECOME A DOG GUIDE?
Sam says, SO, THESE GUYS ARE
SPECIALLY BRED AND PICKED
TO GO INTO THE PROGRAM,
AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE
A NUMBER OF TESTS TO PASS
BEFORE THEY ARE
SUCCESSFUL AS A WORKING DOG.
Laura says, RIGHT. AMAZING! OKAY.
WELL, THAT'S SO COOL, SAM!
Matt says, SEE, HENRY?
DOGS DO ALL KINDS OF JOBS,
ALL KINDS OF THINGS.
THEY'RE-- THEY SUPPORT PEOPLE,
AND THEY'RE BEST
FRIENDS TO PEOPLE,
AND THEY'RE GUIDES,
SO, DOESN'T THAT JUST MAKE
YOU WANT TO KEEP BEING A DOG?
(Mooing sound)
Matt looks surprised.
Matt says, WHOA. I GUESS NOT.
(Chuckling)
Laura says, OKAY, WELL, HENRY,
I THINK I ACTUALLY KNOW A DOG
THAT YOU MIGHT REALLY, REALLY
LIKE AND REALLY LOOK UP TO.
Matt says, YOU DO?
Laura says, MY DOG, LOLA!
Matt says, OF COURSE!
Laura says, YES, HENRY! MY DOG LOLA IS MY
BEST FRIEND IN THE WHOLE WORLD.
SHE IS SUCH A GOOD DOG,
AND I LOVE HER SO MUCH.
I LOVE HER BECAUSE SHE'S CUDDLY,
SHE GOES EVERYWHERE WITH ME,
SHE ALWAYS MAKES ME SMILE.
CHECK IT OUT.
A photograph shows Laura smiling and hugging a British bulldog.
Laura says, HERE'S A PHOTO OF
ME AND LOLA HANGING OUT.
SHE'S JUST SO CUTE, AND SHE JUST
TOTALLY GETS ME, YOU KNOW?
Matt says, MM-HM!
Lola, the bulldog, is pictured standing on a sandy beach. Her shadow stretches in front of her on the sand.
Laura says, AND CHECK IT OUT. SHE GOES
ON ADVENTURES WITH ME, TOO.
THIS IS LOLA ON THE BEACH
IN HER LIFE JACKET,
ENJOYING THE WATER,
ENJOYING LIFE,
AND ENJOYING THE WORLD WITH ME!
Matt says, IT SEEMS LIKE YOU GUYS HAVE
A REALLY, REALLY POWERFUL
DOG-HUMAN CONNECTION,
JUST LIKE ME AND HENRY
USED TO HAVE WHEN
YOU WERE A DOG.
Laura says, HEY, IT'S OKAY!
YOU CAN STILL HAVE
AN ANIMAL CONNECTION
WITH HENRY.
Matt says, YOU ARE SO RIGHT.
WE CAN STILL HAVE AN ANIMAL--
SPEAKING OF ANIMAL CONNECTION...
Laura says, OH, YEAH! OKAY. SO, TVOKIDS,
LOLA IS MY BEST FRIEND,
BUT LOLA ALSO HAS
A BEST FRIEND OF HER OWN,
AND THEY TOTALLY MADE
A MUSIC VIDEO TOGETHER.
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!
Matt says, I CAN BELIEVE IT!
I WANT TO SEE IT.
Laura says, OKAY, CHECK IT OUT.
HERE'S LOLA
AND HER BEST FRIEND, JUDY.
Matt and Laura smile. Lola’s lower fangs poke out of her mouth. Judy, a small white dog, sniffs a camera. Lola sits on a chair.

(All mooing)
Matt says, WELL, THAT WAS SO FUN.
HENRY, I KIND OF GET WHY YOU
WERE SO INTO MOOING TODAY.
Laura says, YEAH, THAT WAS AMAZING.
I THINK I WANT TO BE A COW NOW.
THAT WAS AWESOME!
Matt says, TVOKIDS, IF YOU WANT
TO KEEP BEING A COW,
YOU CAN KEEP PRACTICING

I HAVE LEARNED
SO MUCH ABOUT DOGS,
AND SO MUCH ABOUT
MY BEST FRIEND, HENRY.
Laura says, TOTALLY. TVOKIDS, I'M LAURA.

SOME CUTE VIDEOS, RIGHT, MATT?
Matt says, I THINK WE DO!
HOW'S THAT SOUND? CAN WE SHOW
YOU THE CHAMPION FROM LAST WEEK?
Sahlah says, YES.
Matt says, OKAY, LET'S SEE IT.
A male announcer says, CHAMPION.
A dolphin jumps out of water.
(Laura gasping)
MATT: GORGEOUS.
Laura says, WOW.
Matt says, STUNNING, MAJESTIC.
SAHLAH, HEY-- WHAT WOULD YOU--
WHAT DO YOU THINK
ABOUT THAT DOLPHIN?
WHAT WOULD YOU GIVE
THAT OUT OF 10?
Sahlah says, I THINK I WOULD GIVE IT
A NINE OUT OF 10.
Laura and Matt say, NINE OUT OF 10!
Laura says, VERY GOOD SCORE FOR THE DOLPHIN!
OKAY, SAHLAH.
LET'S CHECK OUT THE CHALLENGER.
A male announcer says, CHALLENGER.
A small dog in a bicycle basket, wears sunglasses and a hat. A person wearing black pants with white polka dots pedals the bike.
Laura, gasping, OH, I LOVE IT.
Matt says, THAT LOOKS LIKE THAT COULD BE
HENRY'S LONG-LOST BROTHER.
Laura says, IT DOES! AND LOOK AT THAT,
ANOTHER MAJESTIC RIDE IN THE BIKE.
I LOVE THIS.
SAHLAH, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Sahlah says, I THINK I WOULD GIVE IT
A 10 OUT OF 10!
Matt and Laura say, 10 OUT OF 10!
Laura says, YOU HEAR THAT, HENRY?
Matt says, THE DOGS WIN,
BECAUSE DOGS ARE SO AWESOME.
SAHLAH, THANKS SO MUCH FOR
HELPING US OUT WITH THAT,
WITH CHOOSING THE NEW CHAMPION.
IT WAS GREAT TO MEET YOU.
Matt looks at Sahlah.
Matt and Laura wave and say, THANKS, SAHLAH!
Matt says, AND WE LOVED YOUR PICTURES.
WE'LL TALK TO YOU SOON, OKAY?
Sahlah says, BYE!
Laura says, BYE, SAHLAH!
Matt says, BYE!
Laura says, THANK YOU!
Matt says, SEE, HENRY? THAT WAS SO COOL,
AND I-- I DON'T KNOW
IF YOU NOTICED, BUT THE DOG
HAPPENED TO BE THE CHAMPION.
CLEARLY PEOPLE REALLY LIKE DOGS.
DOESN'T THAT JUST MAKE YOU
WANNA GO FETCH OR CATCH A BONE
OR A FRISBEE OR SOMETHING?
Henry wags his tail.
Laura says, OKAY.
WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT, HENRY?
HERE'S THE THING, WE WILL
SUPPORT YOU NO MATTER WHAT,
BUT I DO KNOW A REALLY COOL
DOG EXPERT THAT MIGHT MAKE YOU
BE REALLY INSPIRED TO
STAYING A DOG FOREVER.
HOW DOES THAT SOUND?
Matt says, YEAH? OKAY? SOUNDS COOL?
Laura says, OKAY, CHECK IT OUT,
I HAVE GOT SUE HERE FROM
THERAPEUTIC PAWS OF CANADA
WITH HER THERAPY DOG, CHUCK!
HEY, SUE!
Sue wears a red shirt with a round Therapeutic Paws of Canada logo on one side. Strands of her blond hair hang around her face. Most of her hair is pulled back. She sits on a brown sofa and a painting of a horse leaning over a fence, hangs on the wall behind her. Sue feeds treats to a chocolate Labrador retriever.
Sue says, HI!
Laura says, WELCOME TO THE TREE FORT.
WE SEE YOU'VE GOT
CHUCK THERE, TOO.
HOW ARE YOU TWO TODAY?
Sue says, WE ARE WONDERFUL
AND WE'RE SO PLEASED TO BE
WITH YOU HERE TODAY.
Laura says, YES, WE'RE SO EXCITED
TO HAVE YOU.
CAN WE JUST GET RIGHT TO IT?
CAN YOU TELL THE TVOKIDS WHAT
IS THERAPEUTIC PAWS OF CANADA?
Sue says, ABSOLUTELY.
THERAPEUTIC PAWS OF CANADA
IS A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION
OF CERTIFIED VOLUNTEERS WHO,
WITH THEIR DOGS OR CATS,
MAKE REGULAR VISITS TO
SENIORS' RESIDENCES,
HOSPITALS, SCHOOLS, LIBRARIES,
AND A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT PLACES.
Laura says, AWESOME, AND, SUE,
FOR THE TVOKIDS
WHO MIGHT NOT KNOW,
WHAT EXACTLY IS
A THERAPY DOG?
Sue says, THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
A THERAPY DOG, SUCH AS CHUCK,
IS A DOG WHO'S BEEN
TESTED TO BE ABLE TO GO
INTO DIFFERENT PLACES,
MEET DIFFERENT PEOPLE,
BE VERY COMFORTABLE AROUND
WHEELCHAIRS AND LITTLE CHILDREN
IN A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT SCENARIOS.
SO, THEY GET TESTED, AND ONCE THEY'RE
APPROVED TO GO IN,
THEN THEY'RE ALLOWED
TO JUST GO AND VISIT.
Laura says, I LOVE THAT SO MUCH.
WHO WOULDN'T WANT
A VISIT FROM A DOG?
SUE, I WANT TO KNOW,
WHY DO YOU THINK DOGS MAKE
SUCH GREAT COMPANIONS
FOR HUMANS?
Sue says, WELL, YOU KNOW, THE HUMAN
AND ANIMAL BOND IS SO IMPORTANT
BECAUSE ANIMALS PROVIDE COMFORT,
AND OFTENTIMES
A TEMPORARY DISTRACTION
FROM EVERY DAY
STRESSES AND PROBLEMS.
YOU KNOW, THEY, UM--
PEOPLE ALWAYS FEEL BETTER WHEN
THEY'RE AROUND DOGS,
AND OFTEN WE CAN SEE IT
ON THEIR FACES IN
THE FORM OF A BIG SMILE.
Matt says, AW.
Laura says, YES!
Matt says, AND DO YOU THINK MY DOG, HENRY,
COULD BE A GOOD
THERAPY DOG ONE DAY?
Sue says, I THINK HE WOULD MAKE
A WONDERFUL THERAPY DOG.
HE'S ALREADY
FREELANCING FOR YOU.
Laura says, YEAH! CHECK IT OUT!
Matt says, THAT'S AWESOME.
AND WE WERE WONDERING,
WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE THING
ABOUT YOUR DOG, CHUCK?
Sue says, WELL, OH.
THE LIST IS TOO LONG,
SO I'LL MAKE IT REALLY SHORT.
UM, THIS IS A WONDERFUL DOG WHO
I'VE TRAINED TO PARTICIPATE IN
A LOT OF ACTIVITIES. WE DO--
WE DO DIFFERENT COMPETITIONS.
WE DO TRICKS, BUT THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING IS HE'S ALWAYS
WITH ME, HE'S ALWAYS, YOU KNOW,
JUST THERE FOR ME TO ENJOY,
AND HE'S AN AMAZING FRIEND.
Laura says, I LOVE THAT SO MUCH.
AN AMAZING FRIEND.
Matt says, DOGS REALLY DO MAKE
AWESOME, AWESOME FRIENDS.
I'VE GOT A DOG FRIEND,
I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A DOG FRIEND,
AND NOW WE HAVE
A NEW FRIEND IN YOU.
IT WAS SO GREAT
TO MEET YOU TODAY.
Sue says, AND LIKEWISE! IT WAS WONDERFUL.
Matt says, THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
Laura says, THANKS SO MUCH, SUE!
BYE, SUE! BYE, CHUCK!
Matt says, BYE!
Laura says, THAT WAS AWESOME,
AND, YOU KNOW WHAT, MATT?
THAT ACTUALLY REMINDED ME
THAT A FEW YEARS AGO,
I GOT TO MEET SOME
GUIDE DOGS IN TRAINING.
Matt says, YOU DID?
Laura says, I TOTALLY DID!
Matt says, DOGS WITH JOBS!
Laura says, CHECK IT OUT!
Laura holds a black puppy.
Laura wears a red shirt as she holds the squirming puppy. A woman with black hair pulled back into a ponytail stands beside her. The woman wears a black tee shirt over a shirt with long white sleeves. The woman holds a yellow puppy.
Laura says, HEY, TVOKIDS, I AM HERE AT
THE LIONS FOUNDATION OF CANADA
DOG GUIDES, AND I'M WITH
SAM, NIAH, AND NILES,
AND I'M PRETTY EXCITED.
SAM, CAN YOU TELL ME A LITTLE
BIT ABOUT WHAT YOU GUYS DO HERE?
Sam says, YEAH, SO, AT DOG GUIDES
WE TRAIN DOG GUIDES
FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.
THESE GUYS ARE
JUST STARTING OUT,
BUT IN ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF
THEY'RE GOING TO BE
WORKING WITH A PARTNER,
HELPING THEM TO GAIN
MORE INDEPENDENCE.
Laura says, AMAZING. SO, THEY'RE GOING
TO START ACTUALLY WORKING
THOSE JOBS IN, LIKE,
A YEAR AND A HALF.
Sam says, YEAH.
Laura says, SO, CAN YOU TELL ME A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT WHAT THE TRAINING'S LIKE?
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO
BECOME A GUIDE DOG?
Sam says, SO, THESE GUYS,
FOR THE NEXT YEAR,
THEY'RE GOING TO BE LIVING WITH
A FAMILY, LEARNING THE BASICS,
GOOD MANNERS, SOCIALIZATION,
AND OBEDIENCE,
AND THEN ADD A YEAR,
THEY'LL COME BACK HERE
TO LEARN SOME SPECIALIZED
TASKS TO HELP THEIR PARTNER.
Laura says, COOL! SO, THEY KIND OF
GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS,
THEY LEARN TO SIT,
BECOME A GOOD DOG,
AND THEN THEY CAN START
THEIR REAL GUIDE DOG--
Sam says, FORMAL TRAINING, YEAH.
Laura says, RIGHT.
COOL. SO, WHAT ARE
THE PROGRAMS LIKE?
WHO DO THESE GUIDE DOGS HELP?
Sam says, WE HAVE A LOT OF
DIFFERENT PROGRAMS.
CANINE VISION, HEARING EAR,
SERVICE, SEIZURE RESPONSE,
AUTISM ASSISTANCE,
AND DIABETIC ALERT.
NOT SURE YET WHERE THESE
GUYS ARE GOING TO GO.
Laura says, WOW, OKAY. SO, THEY KIND
OF HAVE TO FIND OUT WHAT
THEIR JOURNEY IS
AND SEE WHERE THEY END UP.
Sam says, YUP.
Laura says, AWESOME. SO, CAN ANY DOG
BECOME A DOG GUIDE?
Sam says, SO, THESE GUYS ARE
SPECIALLY BRED AND PICKED
TO GO INTO THE PROGRAM,
AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE
A NUMBER OF TESTS TO PASS
BEFORE THEY ARE
SUCCESSFUL AS A WORKING DOG.
Laura says, RIGHT. AMAZING! OKAY.
WELL, THAT'S SO COOL, SAM!
Matt says, SEE, HENRY?
DOGS DO ALL KINDS OF JOBS,
ALL KINDS OF THINGS.
THEY'RE-- THEY SUPPORT PEOPLE,
AND THEY'RE BEST
FRIENDS TO PEOPLE,
AND THEY'RE GUIDES,
SO, DOESN'T THAT JUST MAKE
YOU WANT TO KEEP BEING A DOG?
(Mooing sound)
Matt looks surprised.
Matt says, WHOA. I GUESS NOT.
(Chuckling)
Laura says, OKAY, WELL, HENRY,
I THINK I ACTUALLY KNOW A DOG
THAT YOU MIGHT REALLY, REALLY
LIKE AND REALLY LOOK UP TO.
Matt says, YOU DO?
Laura says, MY DOG, LOLA!
Matt says, OF COURSE!
Laura says, YES, HENRY! MY DOG LOLA IS MY
BEST FRIEND IN THE WHOLE WORLD.
SHE IS SUCH A GOOD DOG,
AND I LOVE HER SO MUCH.
I LOVE HER BECAUSE SHE'S CUDDLY,
SHE GOES EVERYWHERE WITH ME,
SHE ALWAYS MAKES ME SMILE.
CHECK IT OUT.
A photograph shows Laura smiling and hugging a British bulldog.
Laura says, HERE'S A PHOTO OF
ME AND LOLA HANGING OUT.
SHE'S JUST SO CUTE, AND SHE JUST
TOTALLY GETS ME, YOU KNOW?
Matt says, MM-HM!
Lola, the bulldog, is pictured standing on a sandy beach. Her shadow stretches in front of her on the sand.
Laura says, AND CHECK IT OUT. SHE GOES
ON ADVENTURES WITH ME, TOO.
THIS IS LOLA ON THE BEACH
IN HER LIFE JACKET,
ENJOYING THE WATER,
ENJOYING LIFE,
AND ENJOYING THE WORLD WITH ME!
Matt says, IT SEEMS LIKE YOU GUYS HAVE
A REALLY, REALLY POWERFUL
DOG-HUMAN CONNECTION,
JUST LIKE ME AND HENRY
USED TO HAVE WHEN
YOU WERE A DOG.
Laura says, HEY, IT'S OKAY!
YOU CAN STILL HAVE
AN ANIMAL CONNECTION
WITH HENRY.
Matt says, YOU ARE SO RIGHT.
WE CAN STILL HAVE AN ANIMAL--
SPEAKING OF ANIMAL CONNECTION...
Laura says, OH, YEAH! OKAY. SO, TVOKIDS,
LOLA IS MY BEST FRIEND,
BUT LOLA ALSO HAS
A BEST FRIEND OF HER OWN,
AND THEY TOTALLY MADE
A MUSIC VIDEO TOGETHER.
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!
Matt says, I CAN BELIEVE IT!
I WANT TO SEE IT.
Laura says, OKAY, CHECK IT OUT.
HERE'S LOLA
AND HER BEST FRIEND, JUDY.
Matt and Laura smile. Lola’s lower fangs poke out of her mouth. Judy, a small white dog, sniffs a camera. Lola sits on a chair.

Matt says, SEE, HENRY? DOGS ARE BEST
FRIENDS TO PEOPLE,
AND THEY'RE GUIDE DOGS,
AND THEY'RE THERAPY DOGS,
AND THEY'RE SO MANY THINGS.
SO, WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED?

OKAY IF YOU CAN KEEP MOOING?
Matt smiles.
Laura says, WELL, YES!
OF COURSE YOU CAN KEEP MOOING!
Matt says, YEAH, WE'D LOVE IF
YOU KEEP MOOING.
Laura says, OKAY, BUT, MATT,
I KIND OF HAVE A WILD IDEA.
Matt says, OKAY, I'M INTRIGUED.
Laura says, IT'S A LITTLE BIT WILD.
Matt asks, WHAT IS IT?
Laura says, WHAT IF WE ALL MOOED?
Matt asks, HENRY, IS THAT OKAY WITH YOU?
IT'S OKAY WITH HENRY.
IT'S OKAY WITH ME. IS IT--
Laura says, TVOKIDS,
YOU HAVE TO JOIN IN, TOO.
Matt says, ONE.
Matt and Laura say, Two. Three.
(All mooing)
Matt says, WELL, THAT WAS SO FUN.
HENRY, I KIND OF GET WHY YOU
WERE SO INTO MOOING TODAY.
Laura says, YEAH, THAT WAS AMAZING.
I THINK I WANT TO BE A COW NOW.
THAT WAS AWESOME!
Matt says, TVOKIDS, IF YOU WANT
TO KEEP BEING A COW,
YOU CAN KEEP PRACTICING
YOUR MOO ALL DAY LONG.
I HAVE LEARNED
SO MUCH ABOUT DOGS,
AND SO MUCH ABOUT
MY BEST FRIEND, HENRY.
Laura says, TOTALLY. TVOKIDS, I'M LAURA.
BE TRUE TO YOU.
Matt says, SEE YOU, TVOKIDS.
(Mooing sound)
Matt and Laura smile and wave. “That TVO Kids Show.”
