About Chuck Chopak
After an international development career of over 35 years, I retired and became a nationally certified animal-assisted intervention specialist. Stella (my French Bulldog) and I are a therapy dog team nationally certified by Pet Partners Stella has also earned the American Kennel Society (AKC) Canine Good Citizen certification that teaches (and certifies) that teaches good manners to dogs and responsible ownership to their human. In addition, I am an animal-assisted intervention specialist certified by the Association of Animal-Assisted Intervention Professionals and I weekly visit the Haverhill Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center (since April 2025) and the Baker-Katz Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center (since January 2026). I am happy to provide contacts at both facilities upon request. We also visit the Haverhill Public Library for \"Stories with Stella\" where kids can practice their reading skills or de-stress.
