This pioneering little handbook was a pleasure to read. It has all you might expect in an introduction to this promising subject: inspiring and instructive anecdotes, guidelines for safe and effective practices, and love and appreciation for canine cooperation that jumps right off the page wagging its tail. For a quick and easy read, it is surprisingly thorough - offering resources and suggestions for aspiring interspecies facilitation teams. I am glad to add my voice to the grateful chorus celebrating this rich contribution to compassion and healing in our justice systems, schools, and wherever else restorative circles may be practiced.
Warmly,
