Poppy, Emotional Support Animal I Asheville, NC

Meet Poppy

Emotional Support Dog & Resident Cuddle Enthusiast

Poppy brings a little extra sweetness to Born to Bend. Loving, cuddly, and happiest when she’s close to her people, she’s joining Dylan in sessions—with your permission, of course!

Her résumé is short but impressive: expert snuggler, enthusiastic recipient of affection, and very good girl. While Dylan handles the conversation, Poppy brings the cute.

Poppy is an emotional support animal, and her presence is optional rather than a formal animal-assisted therapy service. Whether you’re excited to meet her or prefer your therapy without a furry companion, your comfort comes first. Simply let Dylan or our Client Care team know if you would like a session without Poppy. You can change your preference at any time—no explanation needed.

Population: 6+, Adolescents, Young Adults and Adults

Location: Asheville and Virtual
