Tracy Calhoun RN BSN CHPN has been a hospice nurse for twenty-four years. She was a finalist in 2012 for the March of Dimes Nurse of the Year. Tracy is best known as JJ’s “scribe” on social media. She is also an instructor and examiner for Project Canine, a therapy dog organization and an active volunteer with HOPE Animal Assisted Crisis Response. She lives in Oregon with her husband, Tellus, and a multitude of animals. Calhoun’s The Color Purple THDD RATN CGCA CGCU, better known as JJ, is a seven-year-old Golden Retriever. She is a therapy, hospice, and crisis response dog who is prone to sassiness and constantly in search of bacon. She often is confused with a male Irish Setter of unknown origin, no matter how many flowers she wears on her collars while at work. JJ works three days each week with Tracy at Samaritan Evergreen Hospice House, providing comfort to patients, families, staff, and volunteers. Over the years, JJ has become an international virtual therapy dog, helping others to celebrate the power of the human-animal bond and approach the often-scary topic of end of life, whether it be people or pets. She was voted Subaru’s Pet Hall of Fame winner in 2015.
