Peanut - Our Community Dog

Our Community Dog, Peanut, joined us from Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind in 2023. She is a Black Labrador with brindle paws who loves swimming and long runs in the woods when she’s off duty.

While she was originally in training to become a guide dog, Peanut found the harness uncomfortable to wear so she was selected for the Community Dog programme instead due to her social nature and gentle disposition. GETSS is delighted that Peanut was picked as the best fit for our staff and students.

Along with her handler Jill, Peanut participates in classroom activities and works with individual students and groups. She helps to reduce stress and increase the learning potential of students through goal directed interventions. And of course, brings a smile to everyone’s face!
