Meet a Touch Therapy Dog – TEENS

June 12, 2023 @ 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM

Middle & High Schoolers

Duo Dogs’ Touch Therapy program certifies volunteers and their personal dogs to visit hospitals, cancer treatment centers, nursing homes, and residential facilities throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area. Their job can be simple (like brightening the day of everyone they encounter) or specific (acting as an effective motivational tool during physical therapy sessions).  Meet a Duo Dogs Touch Therapy Team – a volunteer and their dog, and learn about this fascinating  program firsthand.

Before the presentation, we will help set up and make some artistic signage for a Duo Dogs supply drive receptacle.  We’ll also decorate both dog cookies for the Duo dogs and human cookies for ourselves to munch on!
