Five kindergartners and a Goldendoodle named Dooley celebrated Georgia Reads Aloud Day on Tuesday. Dooley, along with his owner, Charlene Young of Gainesville, quietly sat on the mat in the media center at Chestnut Mountain Creative School of Inquiry with the children circling him. Dooley is a trained therapy dog, Young said.
