Therapy dog preparatory classes are designed to inform both ends of the leash. You and your dog will learn how to shape foundational cues as well as discover how to build behaviors needed in different therapy environments. Each basic skills class will cover the skills needed to take and successfully pass the Pet Partners Therapy Animal Evaluation so that you may become a registered therapy dog team and provide animal assisted activities (AAA). More advanced class offerings focus on therapy dog skills required in more complex settings and scenarios including crisis response (AACR), counseling/therapy settings (AAT), grief support, and hospital visits.
