Therapy Dogs
International Certification
The
certification test for
Therapy Dogs
International (TDI) is similar to the
Canine Good Citizen
test, with a few modifications and additional exercises designed to
test a dog's willingness to serve and ability to work in an
institutional environment. PDX teamed up with TDI in July of
2006, and since then, 132 teams have been certified. We continue to
encourage, train, and host certification tests as the demand for
pet-assisted therapy increases. These folks are dedicated volunteers as
well as passionate and responsible dog owners. Congratulations!

| Many of these fine teams will
be working with
Bill Thurman on the
Read Aloud Chattanooga initiative to help
children become better readers by being
attentive, uncritical listeners. We're very
excited about being a part of this important
work. If you're interested in joining us, we'd
love to have you. Enroll in the
Canine
Good Citizen class to get started, or if
you're ready for the test,
sign up to schedule your time. |
