Event Details

Sit with therapy dog Beth for a few minutes and read to her! She is a friendly German Shepherd and a very good listener.  

The Paws for Reading Therapy Dog Program is an innovative and heartwarming initiative aimed at improving literacy skills among children. This program allows young readers to practice their reading in a relaxed, non-judgmental environment with the presence of a friendly therapy dog. It combines the love for animals with the joy of reading, creating a unique learning experience.  For children ages 6-11 years old.
