Our Mission

Our Approach

Providing evidence-based advice, we support all school staff to create safe, respectful environments for therapy dog programs.

The problem...

Many schools introduce school dogs with good intentions but without good guidance!

Unfortunately, few schools implement school dog programs with:

  • an awareness of industry best practice

  • clear governance

  • formal risk assessment

  • defined staff ownership

  • student suitability protocols

  • sustainability planning
