What is a Therapy Dog?
Therapy dogs are pet dogs who love meeting new people and have demonstrated a high level of obedience training. Therapy dogs and their handlers visit schools, hospitals, and nursing facilities, as well as special events and college campuses.

What is a Service Dog?
Service dogs are highly trained to perform tasks that will allow a person with a disability to more easily function in their day to day lives. Service dogs are granted access in most, but not all, public places.
