Experience

Bad, Dogs, and Family: Ellen O'Neill Stephens and Celeste Walsen, of
 Courthouse Dogs, believe dogs in courtrooms can
 comfort witnesses. Courthouse dogs are trained
 specifically for the job, a process that can take over
 two years. Courthouse Dogs was founded in 2004,
 and presently employs 87 dogs working in 28 states.
 Here's the s
 tory Ellen and Celeste told:
 Testifying in court can be a traumatic event
 Courthouse Dogs strives to make this ordeal
 bearable
 "When a person is reliving a traumatic event
 they experience physiological reactions similar
 to what they had when the event was taking
 place"
 "These dogs should be available to any
 vulnerable witness that would have difficulty
 talking about what happened"
 victim or family
 "That could be an adult rape
 member whos child has been murdered and
 have to testify in court"
 "This adversarial system [of testifying in front
 of your attacker) is brutal"
 "We count on dogs to tell us when there's a bad
 guy around"
 "[Wjhen we're in the presence of a relaxed
 dog, it makes us feel that we're in a safe place"
 "[This] can lower our blood pressure and
 reduce anxiety
 “I used to think I was supposed to make the
 witnesses squirm
 "But now I'm telling judges, that technique
 doesn't work"
