Yesterday, the JCHS 8th-grade students and Mrs. Prunty's class had the delightful opportunity to meet Leila, a remarkable service and therapy dog, along with her owner, Kaylie Devlin. Leila is a true star in the dog world—she competes in national events, has appeared in several commercials, and even features on the front of a popular bag of dog treats! Kaylie showcased some of Leila's impressive skills, including her exceptional scent-tracking abilities, and shared a few of her competition videos, highlighting Leila's incredible achievements. Thank you, Kaylie and Leila!
