When life gets ruff, don’t give up!       Let Dusty the Dog Help.

From dyslexia to anxiety, Dusty the Dog helps kids tackle the everyday challenges in their lives.

Just because kids are small doesn’t mean they don’t deal with big problems. Young children often have a difficult time processing their emotions and learning coping mechanisms, especially when it comes to emotional stressors like dyslexia or anxiety.

They need a guide who can help them navigate their complicated feelings and show them how to manage difficult situations.

That’s where Dusty the Dog can help.

Through reading, kids can identify with complex emotions that Dusty and Danny experience and learn coping skills that they can apply to their own life.

Oops!
