As reported by website The Dodo, Nino arrives every morning at the "Play to Learn Preschool" in the United States. Standing by the door, he greets the children as they arrive and has quickly become the school's new mascot.
Jamie White, the founder of the preschool, took Nino in after the death of her friend. During the first few weeks, the dog settled into his new routine with Jamie's children, who were home from university for the summer.
A new chapter at school
However, when the new school term began, loneliness soon set in. Even though he is deaf, Nino felt the absence of his companions deeply.
Seeing his distress, Jamie decided to take Nino to class with her. The bond with the three- and four-year-olds was immediate. "The pupils are so much calmer when he is here. They have a real desire to care for him," the teacher explained. Whether reading to him in quiet voices or gently pushing him in a trolley, Nino now takes part in all the day's routines.
"A dream come true for her"
"I like to think that Linda would be delighted," Jamie added emotionally. "Seeing her Nino receiving so much love, and watching this powerful bond between the children and animals... it would have been a dream come true for her."
