What does it take to become a Good Dog team?

To become a Good Dog team, a dog and handler pair must first have interest in the world of animal-assisted therapy and making a difference in the lives of those in need. The dog must be at least four months old to begin Therapy I, and the handler needs only to have a desire and availability for volunteering with one or more of our facilities or programs.

To become certified as a Good Dog team, the dog must first undergo a pre-screening, so that our trainer can make sure he/she is suitable for classes.
