Looking for a facility to visit? Check out our growing list of facilities!
This list includes facility name, contact person and the phone number.

Here are some suggestions for facility participation:

  • When a match of a facility and volunteer has been made by , you will receive notificaion of the therapy dog handler's name and breed of dog.
  • will contact the therapy dog team and ask them to contact you.
  • During the initial phone contact, it is recommended that you set up a time for an initial meeting with the therapy dog team.
  • Ask the therapy dog team to bring a copy of their membership card. A current membership indicates that the dog is up to date on all shots, etc. and is covered by insurance and cleared for visiting.
  • Please let the therapy dog team know of any additional requirements you may have, such as a current physical, TB test, etc.
  • At your initial meeting you should talk about how you want to organize the visits.

    1. Will the therapy dog team be greeted and escorted to areas?
    2. Will the therapy dog team primarily visit one area?
    3. Will clients who want a visit by a therapy dog be identified ahead of time?

  • What is the frequency of visits? Who is the contact person for the therapy dog team (should a change be necessary)?

  • Most of All....Enjoy! And remember to contact if you require further information or assistance.
