Animal Assisted Therapy at Play Partners

Vivi - Therapy Assistant.png

In first term of 2024, Katrina and Vivi trained together as a dog handler team with Therapy Dogs Australia to prepare for Play Partners to be able to offer Animal Assisted Therapy services.

 

They participated in the Clinical course which when completed, allows Vivi to be part of a therapy session alongside Katrina, where it is thought Vivi will positively assist with goal directed client centered therapy.

 

Vivi will be a useful resource for children who enjoy animals and might otherwise find therapy sessions challenging. 

​

Vivi has completed her obedience assessment and will undergo temperament testing in the near future in the hope she will be certified as a level 1 therapy dog
