Therapy Dog Preparation presented by Pat Kinch
If you have a dog that just loves people or it seems people are just drawn to your dog this may be the route for you. Do you like helping others or making them feel better? Therapy dogs and their handlers visit nursing homes, hospitals and visit schools. Whether it's just visiting an elderly person or teaching kids about dog safety or how to read you and your dog can make a difference. Many of the TDI tests are similar to the Canine Good Citizen testing. You'll also be introduced to medical equipment like walkers and wheel chairs and teach your dog to leave food or other items people may drop on the floor. Our Canine Good Citizen training class puts you on the right path to successfully training your dog for therapy work.
In addition to the seminar, there will be 10 spots available for either CGC or TDI evaluations. You can sign up on the Registration Form for the evaluations.
