  • About Us

    Our Mission

    We help children with special needs who are not engaging, complying, or progressing in their therapy by providing Animal Assisted Therapy, thereby supporting and encouraging the kids through the unconditional love of an animal-human friendship.

    We believe that working hand-in-hand with the children's therapists, aids and teachers in school and clinics, our animals can encourage the children to achieve their therapy goals.

     Our Vision

     To strengthen the skill sets of children with special needs, giving them the confidence, they need to achieve their personal goals. To help them, with the assistance of animals, develop both physically and socially, and to improve in the areas of emotional self-regulation and motivation.
