Dog Tips

  Many dogs do therapy work do it in stylish clothing. Seriously.

While some therapy dog organizations provide a logo sash or vest, many do not. Owners who escort therapy dogs on their rounds to hospitals, nursing homes and school reading programs report that wearing a cute tee shirt, vest or doggie dress helps the canine therapist leap the gap toward people who may feel unconfident or distressed. Clothing makes the therapy dog seem more empathetic and approachable.

    These so-called “tips” are becoming more ridiculous day by day!

    You’d think that with the multi billion dollar global dog clothing biz somebody would think up a “Therapy Dog on Duty” tee or coat that therapy dogs could wear proudly when visiting hospitals and nursing homes. Kids in hospitals and elderly people in homes love that kind of thing. So heartwarming.
