If you have a certified therapy/comfort dog then we have a loving audience for you. The men and women who have developmental and intellectual disabilities that live in our homes are not able to have a pet of their own but miss the opportunity to spend time with a dog or cat. We have various locations and are especially in need of a pet therapist in the areas of Oak Ridge and Sparta, NJ. Please visit our website to learn more about our organization. www.dpd.org
