Library Dogs
In addition to visiting people in a variety of medical and living settings, our certified therapy dogs go into schools and other learning situations to provide emotional support to students.
The Library Dog calmly stays on his/her bed or blanket, keeping quiet while children take turns “reading” to him. This program is utilized by local public libraries and some schools to offer a non-threatening environment for the child that has difficulty reading.
We would like to express our gratitude to these people for their generous donations to Paws For Love Therapy Dogs.
