:Our dachshund is currently being trained for therapy work. Just curious what other breeds are involved.

I've had 3 Belgian Tervuren therapy dogs (including the 2 now), one Miniature American Eskimo, and one Labrador/German Shepherd cross. I did therapy dog visits for a couple of years with a partner who had long-coated standard Dachshunds, sweet dogs.
