According to Joie Henney there is only one licensed Emotional Support Alligator in the country and he was in our studio this morning! Take a listen:
Joie and his stepson Chris were excited to bring their pet by the studio this morning, they were already in town headed to a school assembly. Wally is a friendly, trained gator who just wants to be rubbed, not feared! He is available to come out to events and has a special niche with senior citizens and kids with special needs. Wally’s presence it surprisingly calming.
Of course there are so many questions:
- Why? Joie adopted the alligator during a very sad time in his life. Wally’s support was better than any medication!
- If Wally is legally an emotional support animal, can he go on a plane? YES, but don’t expect to ever see him on one.
- Is he available for hire? YES! Contact Joie Henney at 717-577-0874
- Honestly, were you scared? Sure, he was a little intimating, but in reality, Wally’s just a big love bug! The one time he began to wiggle out of control, it was just because so many people were around and no one was petting him!
