There’s no point in having a guard dog who wants to cuddle everyone – but that’s exactly what Lexy was. The pup didn’t start as a therapy dog. Maj. Christine Rumayor, an 82nd Airborne psychiatrist, originally wanted Lexy to be a guard dog. When she realized the pup was prone to calm cuddles, she decided to train the pooch.
Lexy became a therapy dog after two and a half years of training. She’s now a lieutenant colonel and certified as Fort Bragg’s only therapy dog. It just goes to show that even puppies have a place in our military.
