Millie is a 3-month-old Black Labrador Retriever, therapy dog in training.
As Millie begins to learn the importance of her new responsibilities, you may find her at the funeral home, Death Café, and at various events throughout the community. She’s still learning the ins-and-outs of doing you-know-what in the right place, so she’ll be on a short leash for starters, but she will soon broaden her horizons to be available for families at funeral arrangements, visitations, and funeral services as her schedule allows.
Millie is the result of years of planning to bring a vision of the next level of care and comfort to the families we serve and to the entire Kenosha community.
Follow Millie on the Piasecki Funeral Home Facebook page www.facebook.com/PiaseckiFuneralHome and see more of her out-and-about adventures on her own Facebook page at www.facebook.com/K9MillieTherapyDog
We are blessed by all the love and cuddles that Millie will bring to our funeral home and we are excited for you all to meet her.
