Cocoa & Cram- Rockland High School

January 15, 2026

Our Plymouth County Comfort Dogs were invited to join Rockland High School’s staff for a Cocoa & Cram session. The Cocoa & Cram Session is an opportunity for students to get together in the school library to study for their upcoming midterms. The school provided snacks, drinks and hot cocoa for the students. Our comfort dogs were on hand to allow the students to take a break from the stressors of studying and relax by interacting with the dogs before getting back on track.

Special thanks to our comfort dog teams: Kinley & Officer Schnabel (Rockland), Blue & Officer Billings (Scituate), Opry & Officer Ford (Hingham), Morgan & Officer Connor (East Bridgewater), Lexi & Det. Baptiste (Wareham) and Nola & Sgt. Harrington (Whitman)

The comfort dog teams and the Halifax Police Department were able to spend time with the kids shopping, laughing and joking while everyone enjoyed delicious pizza from Cape Cod Cafe. A huge thank you to Halifax Police and Walmart for sponsoring this event and allowing us to shop in their store. A big shout out to Cape Cod Cafe for generously donating the pizzas to feed everyone. Your kindness is greatly appreciated. Another big shout out to McQuarrie Towing & Recovery for stopping by and surprising the kids with a special donation that made their experience even more memorable.
