In this episode the guys have a fascinating conversation with John and Joy Pope, and Bob! Bob is Joy’s service dog and we actually got to see Bob in action during show.
The Pope’s tell us their story and how Bob has helped Joy to get her life back. They tell us how dogs are selected for service, how they are trained, what they can do, and what to look out for when looking for a service dog.
