Sponsorship Opportunity Levels
Meet Bristol's Newest Celebrities
Jingle
In October 2024, BTCS was beyond excited to welcome our first official therapy dog, Jingle. Jingle quickly became a local celebrity! After she passed the Canine Good Citizen Test, she began her work at Viking Academy, a program of Tennessee High School. Whether helping students manage big emotions or simply providing a friendly paw, Jingle has quickly become an invaluable part of the Viking Academy school community.
Honey
In January 2025, Honey joined Jingle in the BTCS Therapy Dog Program. After Honey completes her official training, she will be assigned to Tennessee Middle School. Both Jingle and Honey are F1B goldendoodles, which means they are one generation more hypoallergenic than a first generation goldendoodle.
