The Schmudes will discuss qualifications, training, and activities. Find out what therapy pets actually do, and learn what it takes to be a therapy pet. Qualifications, training, and activities will be discussed. You’ll be able to meet some therapy pets who are currently participating in area programs and be able to talk to their handlers.
