Finny is a miniature poodle who has undergone extensive obedience and socialization training. He earned his Canine Good Citizen certification in July 2024 and shortly thereafter passed his evaluation to become a certified therapy dog. Finny and his handler, Kaitlyn Urbaniak, form a certified therapy dog team with the Alliance of Therapy Dogs.

Although small in stature, Finny has a big heart and is eager to share his affection. He loves receiving pets, especially behind the ears, and isn't shy about gently pawing at those who may not be giving him enough attention. Finny enjoys demonstrating his tricks and showcasing his playful, endearing personality. When he's not working, you can find him cozying up with a blanket and his favorite toy, Snuggle Puppy.
Finny is excited to bring his therapy dog skills to the Survivor Advocacy Program, offering unconditional support to Bobcat survivors and co-survivors.
