Review for Therapet, Tyler, TX, USA
I have been involved with Therapet for many years and find that volunteering through this organization is a very positive and uplifting experience for those that we serve, as well as myself. I have seen the progress that patients make throughout their stay in the rehab hospital, and have seen the stress relief (if only for a few minutes)that family members and hospital staff get when they stop to pet or hug the Therapet animals. This unique organization makes a positive impact in the community through its rehab and visitation with patients, community events and many types of childrens' camps.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
in the progress that rehab patients have made in range of motion improvement, cognitive improvement, and more...
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
seeing the improvements to someone's health as a result of their working with an animal during therapy. Seeing smiles come to the faces of those in pain, or those that may be "down" due to an extended hospital stay.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
always friendly and eager to share their animals in an effort to help others.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
never have to worry about the cost of educating others on the benefits of animal assisted therapy; and share its education and training with even more people that it does now so that others could create similar programs in other parts of the US and beyond
