Do you have a dog that absolutely loves people? One who just wants all the pets and attention? Those are perfect qualities in a therapy dog!

As a therapy team, you and your dog can volunteer in hospitals, nursing homes, libraries, and schools—bringing comfort and compassion to those who need it most.

If you already have some basic obedience skills and a well-mannered, people-loving pup, we’d love for you to join us for our Therapy Dog Skills Class starting this Thursday at 6 PM. Come practice the skills needed for therapy work in a fun and supportive environment.

Sign up below! We hope to see you there!
