What will I learn?

This Therapy Dog Training Course teaches you how to choose, evaluate, and ready dogs for safe and effective service in hospitals and rehabilitation centres. You will learn step-by-step training for calm interactions, assisted mobility, grooming tasks, and relaxed positioning near medical equipment. Gain expertise in infection prevention, safety guidelines, animal welfare checks, and basic progress monitoring to conduct organised 30-minute sessions that aid patient recovery while safeguarding the dog's health.

I like how the lessons get straight to the point and how I can switch chapters and skip content I don't need.
