Courses based on current research, delivered by qualified and experienced allied health and dog training professionals.
Therapy dog and handler training designed for existing health professionals, and educators who are interested in the field of Animal Assisted Therapy. Our mission is to assist in creating human-canine therapy teams by equipping people with the skills and confidence required to include their dogs in their daily practice in a manner which is safe and ethical for their dog and their clients.
What is a Therapy Dog?
A Therapy Dog is a dog which has been trained with their handler (usually their owner), to provide therapeutic intervention to another person in the community (e.g. allied health client, school student, nursing home resident).
Please note, we do not train assistance dogs or companion dogs.
