PAWS Therapy Dogs provide compassionate canine community service work by visiting libraries, schools, senior centers and nursing homes. Children, teens and adults can hang out, pet and read a book with these trained therapy pups. Kids’ reading skills can be strengthened and reading confidence increased during this fun literacy time with these wonderful dogs and their handlers. If your child in not reading yet, no worries, they can still have fun.
