Therapy Dog Foundation Inc. - What Is A Therapy Dog

Since I have been working on the Therapy Dog Foundation Inc. website, I thought I would share with you a bit about the benefits of training and working as a Therapy Dog Team.





As a member of Therapy Dog Foundation Inc., I have seen first hand the positive response from those who have had an opportunity to experience a visit from our dogs.



Studies have shown positive interaction with dogs helps relieve depression, reduces blood pressure and even increases practical stimulation.



Members who take part in therapy dog class typically find it's a wonderful way to bond with your dog.



Once certified and established as a Therapy Dog Team you become eligible to participate in various types of community events. Whether you're visiting a local nursing home, or a local hospital, this can be very rewarding for all involved.





If you are interested in joining a therapy dog program please look online for a Therapy Dog Club near your city. I leave you with a link to our local chapter for those who are interested.
