Paisley rebelled against her championship show-dog family by becoming a therapy dog instead. Animal Assisted Therapy reduces depression, anxiety and blood pressure, so Paisley and Betz make a great team. Holding certifications from the American Kennel Club and Therapy Dogs International, Paisley uses her intuition and loving-kindness to comfort people through play, snuggles and sloppy kisses.

Paisley offers Animal Assisted Therapy at Voyage Counseling Center.

Some of Paisley's best therapeutic interventions include:

• Giving bones and teddy bears to crying clients
• Sitting down between an arguing couple
• Chewing through the phone cord while Betz was negotiating with Managed Care
• Licking tears
