Hillsboro School Therapy Dog Gets Visit from Senator John Hoeven

Hillsboro, ND — One good dog caught the eye of a US Senator this week. Senator John Hoeven made a special visit to the Hillsboro School District this week to visit with school staff, specifically Agricultural Education Instructor Levi Reese and his Therapy Dog Maura. Reese says the dog has made a “pawsitive” impact on the behavioral health of students.

Reese added that it’s pretty special to see the impact of the Maura grabbing the attention of people outside the district and hopefully with the Senator Hoeven they can expand the therapy dog program to other schools.

Maura even has her own Facebook page, Instagram, and website. For more information visit www.mauragoldenrdog.com or follow St. Croix Maura on Facebook.
