Pet Therapy



My dogs are my pet therapy. They bring me a lot of joy and comfort. For example, Billary's loving playful ways are therapeutic to me, especially after a hectic day at work. My hunches about pet therapy were confirmed as I researched and came across information from organizations such as Utah Animal-Assisted Therapy Association and Pet Assisted Therapy Services. These organizations acknowledge the miracle of the human-animal bond. Volunteers for organizations such as these make it their mission to visit people who are mentally or physically ill as well as shut in away from the rest of the world. Their pets go into the difficult life situations of many people, and bring the love and acceptance that other people can't always bring.
