True_Pits Posted September 1, 2004 Posted September 1, 2004 I don't have much time as I'm about to leave, so I'll make it quick. If anyone would be so kind as to post info about Therapy Dogs I would really appreciate it. I have a dog which I'm thinking about doing therapy dog work with in the local nursing home. Many of the elder people dont get much attention, not even from family members and many also love animals. How to get involved? Certification? Permission? Ect anything that would help me. Quote

rotten_two Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 yes mouse i believe you are correct -- in some programs the cgc test is a part of therapy dog certification :D Quote
True_Pits Posted September 3, 2004 Author Posted September 3, 2004 I thought she'd need her CGC. I went to the site but it was about buying a book about investment or something to that nature. EDIT: Ok I did a google search and found it. It was .org...lol I'm checking it out now. Quote
dachsfilm Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 This is a noble undertaking and thank you on behalf of my father who was always a cheerier soul the day the therapy dogs would visit his nursing home!:smile: Quote

He lived out his last few months in peace and was very happy in the retirement home which is always a real bonus!! Quote
MarkKennedy Posted June 17, 2022 Posted June 17, 2022 Hello. I'm sad because I remember that my fiancee had a dog, but we broke up not so long ago. Friends advise me to read about bbw site so that I can choose some kind of dating site that will help me. But I'm not sure that it will help me, so I don't know what to do yet. I'll think a little more. Quote
annnnaa91 Posted April 17 Posted April 17 As you mentioned a therapy dog, it made me think about the parents of kids who could actually use that kind of help. If you haven’t heard of therapeutic camps, go check this out: https://www.gofunlo.com/offers?type=kolonie&categories=terapeutyczne&sort=published_at_desc Quote
