Therapy dogs take care of their people at West Virginia University

[@holistic7980]

therapy dogs are amazing. my senses connected to one and I can't describe it it just made me feel better and warm inside. I would recommend them to the sick ppl any day.

im 15 and i have a miniature poodle who acts as my therapy dog everytime i am sick. she lays down with me and nevers leaves my side, even when i fall asleep. she has been especially good lately because i have had the flu for a week now and she has been my therapy dog every day

@@Huegan14 That sound more like a Emotional support animal. A threapy animal is a animal that goes to places such as schools and hospitals and places like that, to help comfort multiple people. A ESA is a dog who stays home with its owner and comforts them. A threapy dog is a working dog. A ESA isn't.

What a great idea! I hope this catches on at other universities. Of course, there needs to be a care giver there, too, to ensure their well being. Great video!

Wonderful program! I visit with my TDI certified papillon dog for 4 years high schools during finals week,senior centers, libraries, day cares and other venues. we love it and so do those we visit. Thanks for rechanneling great dogs into doing therapy dog work. So needed.

Whether horses, dogs, pigs or goats are used, smart folks are discovering the benefits of animal therapy. Partly because of this healing affect, farmstay get-a-ways are growing in popularity. Not just for the immediate boost that comes from escaping the city and encouraging your loved ones to unplug, but also for the therapeutic affect farm animal interaction provides. This experience offers an unusual alternative to what everyone else is doing! Places like Morning Song Farm offer plenty to do in the middle of Southern California's wine country playground, and lots of healthy organic fruit and vegetables to enjoy.
