- How she discovered she could work with dogs in her mental health career.
- The importance of the dog enjoying therapy work and why Millie wouldn’t.
- How she found, selected, and trained Jovie and how she funded it through her company @millie_girl_merch.
- Her experience working with crisis response dogs through @hopeaacr and how they differ from therapy dogs.
