The “Paws To Read” Therapy Dog reading program at Lafayette Public Library is a vetted facility working closely with Therapy Dogs Boulder County to bring some wonderful dog therapy reading skills to children who greatly appreciate the interaction. The Paws To Read Therapy Dog program is a totally volunteer program and operates with team visits periodically for special events.
All teams are part of a group email list so they can communicate absences and emergency coverage. A signup schedule is created and sent to all teams and administration when special events have been scheduled.
Requirements:
- Therapy Dog Registration: All teams must be registered with a therapy dog association. The accepted registration memberships are:
– Alliance of Therapy Dogs (www.therapydogs.com)
– PetPartners(www.petpartners.org
If you are not presently registered with any association, there are several tester/observers for Alliance of Therapy Dogs inside of our Therapy Dogs Boulder County group who can help get you started on that process. Use the “contact us” selection from the main menu and let us know you would like to be tested with your dog.
