Episode Details

Animals can help us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Different dogs have different talents and even a specific purpose in life. It is important to recognize an individual dog’s innate talents, opinions, and the ways in which they desire to serve. In this episode we explain the difference between service dogs, emotional support animals, and therapy dogs. We explain the types of work these dogs do and how you can support your dog as they support others. Our high school program, Canines Teach Compassion is powerful and lowers stress by 62% from one-hour of interaction. Dogs can be trained to detect covid, and many other illnesses including cancer. We tell several stories of how dogs can be our true partners in healing.
