The Erie County Department of Public Safety (911) would love to have us come in to visit their Telecommunicators. They are just finishing out the busy season and having the dogs come always helps them distress.
Below is the information for the visits:
- Exact Location: Erie County Dept. of Public Safety – 2880 Flower Road, Erie, PA 16509
- Parking Information: Anywhere in the lot surrounding the building is fine
- Entrance/Who to Ask For: When they arrive the volunteers will need to pull up to the entry gate, press the button and let the person who answers know they’re with Therapy Dogs United; no need to ask for anyone specific, the person answering the gate will be aware of the visit. They’ll then want to head to the door with the overhang above it on the right hand side of the building if they’re facing it from the road and either myself or the Supervisor on duty will meet them and guide them through the building and into the call center.
Attending Therapy Dogs:
- Rebecca Zitalone, Finn - Poodle/Golden Mix
- Jessica Figoli, Hawkeye - Golden Retriever
