Lacey, NQCTD

Lacey, the not-quite-certified therapy dog

Lacey is our Not-Quite-Certified Therapy Dog (NQCTD). You will often see her around the offices, whenever Grace Petty is there. With a calm and quiet demeanor, she makes herself available to anyone who needs a dog hug or a furry shoulder to cry on. Helping people and being close to them is her main focus and passion. She has spent all but her first year of life as an NQCTD and has gained many insights about humans, which now inform and strengthen her practice.

Lacey enjoys long walks in the countryside, naps in the sun, and special treats made of chicken, but mostly she enjoys being as close as possible to her owner, CVC Founder Grace Petty. If you would like some time with Lacey while you are at CVC, inquire with your therapist to see whether Lacey and Grace are available.
