Four feet, a warm nose and furry coat give unconditional love for patients receiving end of life care. Sometimes the most comforting presence is one that has no words but instead offers a warm nuzzle and friendly face and head that wants a pat.

You and your favorite human would be assigned to patients in private home and long-term care facilities where patients are receiving hospice care.

You are required to successfully complete the certification process thru West Michigan Dog Therapy. Information on certification classes and registration information is available at www.wmtd.clubexpress.com. Humans are encouraged to register their furry friends for certification prior applying! Call Marrilee, Mgr, Volunteer Services at 616-249-3043 for more details!
