What do therapy dogs do?

• Promote a general feeling of well being (children, elderly, general hospital admits)
• Provide unconditional affection to those who lack it (persons in prisons and shelters, especially domestic-abuse shelters)
• Improve focus (Alzheimers patients and persons suffering from clinical depression)
• Interact with those who have difficulty communicating (nonverbal clients; some psychiatric inpatients; persons with a range of associative disorders)
• Stimulate memory functions (especially in Alzheimers patients)
• Encourage and aid speech functions (e.g., in stroke patients)
• Motivate simple physical activities for the mobility impaired (e.g., patting, brushing ,etc.)
