Irish Therapy Dogs’ Volunteers visited University College Cork on Friday last. The afternoon was a tremendous success with many students availing of the opportunity to de-stress before exams as they interacted with our Therapy Dogs. The event also raised awareness of the role of therapy dogs.

Awareness Day, Orchard Home and Garden, Celbridge, Co. Kildare
Irish Therapy Dogs would like to thank Gerry, Lydia and all of the team at Orchard Home and Garden, Celbridge, Co. Kildare (a venue favoured by many of our Volunteers) for the warm and generous welcome extended to us at our Awareness Day held there today. We appreciate the promotion and support given always by Gerry and his team to Irish Therapy Dogs. The event was very successful and we acknowledge the interest shown by their customers in the services we provide to Care Centres and Schools. We hope that, in the future, we will welcome back some of Gerry’s customers as Volunteer Visiting Teams. Thank you also to our Volunteers who attended today.
Lovely Laois, I hear you calling!
Irish Therapy Dogs would like to thank Gerry and Members of the Laois Positive Heart Support Group for the warm welcome given to us when we visited them on Wednesday last. There was a demonstration held on the night where Volunteers simulated visits to Care Centres and showed the therapeutic effect that Therapy Dogs have. This was followed by a Question and Answer a Session and refreshments were then served. We hope that, in the future, we will welcome back some of their members and friends as Volunteer Visiting Teams.
Thank You!
