In this episode of the Cross-Examination podcast, hosts Ted Asregadoo and Brian Feinberg explore the unique role of facility dogs in the legal system. They introduce Bear, the Contra Costa District Attorney's Office facility dog, and delve into how these specially trained canines provide emotional support in sensitive cases, particularly involving minors.
The hosts speak with Janet Wright, Bear's handler at the DA's Office, and guests from Canine Companions – Michelle Williams, Jo Otico, and Pam Durkin – who discuss the training process for these remarkable dogs. Later in the episode, Judge Terri Mockler joins the conversation to shed light on the legal framework and practical considerations for using facility dogs in court, ensuring balance and supporting victims while maintaining the integrity of the judicial process.

Canine Companions is a national organization, but the local chapter in Contra Costa County is in Walnut Creek.
