r/therapydogs

My daughter is developmentally disabled and recently had to spend a week in the hospital. She got to meet two different therapy dogs when she was there and it helped her immensely at a time when she was scared and having to undergo a lot of painful testing and treatment.

She's recovering at home now but keeps asking when she can meet a therapy dog again.

I don't know what to tell her, as I'm not aware of any programs outside of the local hospitals.

Does anyone here have any suggestions? Are there service dog programs that visit libraries or schools?
