This program will prepare your dog for therapy dog work and provide you the opportunity to join the teams that visit. 

The class ends with the opportunity to take the AKC Canine Good Citizen Test and the Therapy Dog Incorporated test. Once your team (you and your dog) pass the test, three observation visits to a public institution are required before you can register as a therapy dog team.
