Have you ever wondered if your dog or cat was appropriate for therapy work? How do you know? What do you look for in a puppy when considering therapy work? How should you train your dog or cat for this type of work? More importantly, what training do I need for this type of work? How do I even get started?
I work in Animal Assisted Play Therapy®, and would love to have you attend my 4-day training in June to get all of those questions answered. The exciting field of Animal Assisted Play Therapy® was developed over two decades ago by Dr. Risë VanFleet and Traci Faa-Thompson, who wrote the bible on this discipline. You'll discover 'all you didn't know that you didn't know' about working with and relating to animals in this field of practice. You'll get hands-on learning with both dogs and horses, but this training also extends to working with cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and other animals often included in therapy. Plus, you'll discover the three most important aspects of working with your animals; body language, relationship, and agency.
