Want to make a difference in the life for those that are at the end of life.
Your certified pet does just that. Your fur baby helps those at the end of life have a brighter day.
You and your pet can join our PUPPY LOVE FOR PATIENTS program at Good Shepherd Hospice. Through visiting our patients who are in nursing homes or in their own homes all over the DFW area your fur baby will be the top dog of our volunteer team. Once your animal is certified as a pet therapy animal, we would love to help you brighten people’s day with a visit from your fur baby.
Remember that "WHEN ACTION MEETS COMPASSION, LIVES CHANGE!"
