Do you have an amazing therapy dog who would love to visit with our patients? We'd love to speak with you.

Our patients, especially those in facilities, miss their furry friends and SPARKLE when they see a thereapy dog. Dementia patients in particular - love to pet and interact with pets. It's an amazing experience!

So if you have a therapy dog who loves to be with people, we can help make this happen!

I can't wait to speak with you and if you want to apply immediately, here's our link: https://bttr.im/71zmi

Thanks!

Sharon
