Waymart Welcomes New Pup to Work on FTC
September 04, 2020 12:00 AM
Meet Buddy, a pup who was brought to SCI Waymart to be trained for support for the Forensic Treatment Center (FTC) blocks.
Buddy is being trained by inmates with the help of a professional trainer. Due to COVID-19, his trainer has not been able to come in to do the training with him and his handlers, so he is currently housed with his handlers for the time being. However, Buddy does go over to work in the FTC every chance he gets.
Once fully trained, he will become a permanent therapy dog in the FTC.
