Therapy Dog Information Session

Volunteering with your dog is one of the most rewarding ways to give back. You know how much your dog gives you -- share their gift with those around you. If your dog is highly social with people, good in new situations and well-mannered join us!
There is more and more need for therapy dogs and more places to volunteer. But there are not enough teams to meet the demand in your community. From hospitals and nursing facilities, to libraries, schools and universities, the opportunities are growing.
Join us on Wednesday February 26th 2025. In presentation and discussion we will answer:

• How do you I know if my dog has what it takes (hint: it's not about obedience)
  
• Where to get training and how to know if you even need training
  
• How to get registered as a therapy dog team
  
• Where to volunteer and types of programs
  

There will be time for Q&As.
Any questions, please contact [email protected] or Audrey @ 917-371-9005
