Description:
In 2004,
utilizing a facility dog to help people better engage with victim advocates,
investigators, attorneys, and judges during the investigation and prosecution of
crimes was considered an absurd idea. Since then, case law and scientific
research has shown that the utilizations of these dogs are an effective way to
reduce emotional trauma and has become a mainstream practice around the
world.
