Dog Helps Teenage Rape Victim Testify

Dogs have always had the ability to soothe restless hearts and souls. This complex dog quality is now being utilized in the courtroom to comfort those victims who are too emotionally traumatized to provide testimony, just like what Rosie did.

A traumatized teenage rape victim testified in court last month with the help of a furry friend Rosie, the first judicially approved courtroom dog in New York. The dog would lean in and nudge the 15-year-old girl whenever she seemed afraid during her testimony. With the girl’s account, prosecutors were able to secure a conviction for her father, who sexually abused her for four years.

Rosie is an 11-year-old golden retriever whose regular job is helping provide therapy in schools for troubled children, was there at her side, helping to calm a child who experts said is otherwise incapable of talking about her traumatic ordeal.
