Betcha hadn't heard of this one before...
Simply put READing Paws helps children read. They accomplish this with Teams comprised of a registered Therapy Animal and owner/handler. These Teams volunteer their time to go to schools, libraries, bookstores and other settings. The handlers have undergone criminal background checks, and the animals are trained and tested for health and safety. READing Paws
is active in literacy programs primarily in Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Tennessee. After viewing the photos posted on the READING Paws website, the animals look like they really love listening and participating with the children. The children as well look encouraged and are enjoying this unique reading exercise.
