Angel Dogs Animal Assisted Therapy for Organizations
Angel Dogs Animal Assisted Therapy & Intervention program was developed to ensure that therapy dogs in an educational or organization setting are properly trained and their individual temperament is vetted and suitable to this work. We help owners become excellent handlers of their therapy dogs with a focus on animal advocacy and meeting ethical and best practice standards in the industry.
We help school districts and organizations to employ a cohesive structured program with strict oversight that ensures your district can be proud of what they are offering! This program can be customized to meet the unique goals of entities both large and small.

Angel Dogs, a rewarding experience…
Therapy work with a dog is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have as the handler of one of these amazing dogs. Interactions with therapy dogs (angel dogs) can make such an impact on the lives of people who benefit from and come to count on these visits. From children to the elderly and disabled, therapy dogs help to bring joy, assist in learning and provide so many other wonderful benefits to these people.
I am proud, humbled and honored to be part of this wonderful community of people dedicated to giving back, and bringing joy and comfort to those who need it most.
I owe a great debt of gratitude to my very dear friend, and mentor Eileen Tonick of Angel Dogs Training. She selflessly took me under her wing and helped me to develop a solid foundation in training dogs, learning about their psyche, how dogs think and communicate. Most importantly though, she fostered my love of therapy work and shared everything she has learned on her journey so that I can now pay it forward to all of the therapy teams I help to develop. Thank you Eileen!
