Review for Therapet, Tyler, TX, USA
As a former hospital administrator, I knew the benefits of animal therapy being used in the healthcare setting. But...as a volunteer in Therapet...I am constantly truly amazed at the benefits of animal therapy. My dog and I have only been in the organization for about 9 months. I knew that my dog and I would make patients happy when we would see them in the hospital or rehab facility. But, I really didn't realize the impact that we would have on that patient's recovery both phycially and mentally. There aren't very many things you can do in life that when you are doing it...you know that you have made an impact on someone that day. I know that every visit I make to a healthcare facility, I have made an impact on at least one person. Therapet is a wonderful organization. Not only because of its leadership, but because of all of the wonderful animals and volunteers who graciously donate their time! Thank you Therapet!!!!

I have personally seen disabled children who seem to have no control over their actions or thoughts reach out to my dog...rub them and smile when therapists thought it would not be possible!
