Souderton School District and Ruby
Facility Dog
Ruby was placed as a Facility Dog in August 2025 with Souderton Area School District. She splits her time working at an elementary and middle school. In addition to helping students de-escalate behavior and deal with trauma and loss, she also models social skills, promotes mindfulness, offers deep pressure therapy, and supports emotional regulation and general angst that comes with being a kid.
“Ruby’s impact is further reaching than I ever thought possible! She’s an expert in gauging moods and all of her students always leave happier than they came!”
~Jen Wenger, Autism Support Teacher and Secondary Handler
