Therapy Dogs at Work — Angels in Fur
Therapy Dogs are able to touch a place
within us when we are in need that
other humans cannot reach. They bring
comfort, healing, smiles, decrease
stress, lower blood pressure, increase
self-esteem, and facilitate interactions—
among other benefits. Therapy Dogs
can change the entire dynamic of a facil-
ity with their presence.
What does a Therapy Dog do?
Therapy Dogs have a wide variety of
roles. They can work with all ages
from infants to elderly and in a wide
variety of environments. Some are
Volunteer Social/Therapy Teams
where a trained handler and his or her
trained dog visit facilities or work
alongside therapists or teachers.
Some Therapy Dogs are Facility Dogs
with more advanced training and
work with their trained handlers on a
daily basis within a medical or educa-
tional facility.
