Dog Therapy

Unlock Unique Benefits with Specialist-Led Dog Therapy Visits

Dog therapy, especially when guided by a qualified specialist teacher offers profound advantages. Combining educational expertise with the calming presence of a trained therapy dog creates a supportive environment that fosters emotional regulation, social interaction, and trust.

Jamie's miniature dachshund, Lottie, is a fully trained therapy dog who helps reduce anxiety, encourages communication, and builds confidence in children, particularly those with additional needs. Lottie's consistent and non-judgmental presence provides a sense of security, which can lead to:

  • Positive emotional development

  • Improved focus and engagement

  • Enhanced social skills

  • Overall wellbeing and increased receptiveness to learning

Please note that Lottie has a very limited number of charity visits available each week through Pets as Therapy and Underdog International (currently fully booked).

For schools wishing to access the unique benefits of dog therapy, fully insured and risk-assessed paid interventions are available. Contact us to discuss how Lottie can support your students.
