Therapy Dogs
A therapy dog is specially trained to visit other environments, such as libraries, hospitals or schools, to provide comfort and affection. Our therapy certification program partners with Alliance of Therapy Dogs.
The present is a great time for you to consider providing therapy for those who desire a visit from a loving animal. Salem Hospital, Willamette Vital Health, Oregon State Hospital and other organizations are all in need of therapy providers, and the process to certification can be fun and rewarding!
Eric Schuman and his dogs are certified therapy providers and he serves as a tester/observer for the Alliance of Therapy Dogs. You can become certified any time of year. There are four steps. Click below to begin your therapy dog certification today!
If you have questions about the Therapy Dog program, Eric is happy to assist you.
