What time is your event?

Why do you wish for Pet Therapy at your Event?
We are a K-3 school and the therapy dog visit helps motivate our early readers. They work hard to prepare for "buddy reading" with a furry partner. This helps their fluency and confidence level when reading out loud.

Additional Details/Comments/Questions
We have had this event last year for both the 1st and 3rd graders. We are trying to expand the opportunity to all classes and more often if possible. The children will rotate through a visit with the dog to read a book for 3-5 minutes each during the hour.
