Therapy Dogs: Compassionate Modalities takes its audience beyond warm and fuzzy visits, to interventions that are
functional as well as fun. Kris Butler brings approximately 900 hours of professional experience to this project. Over the
past nine years, her client population has included pediatric and adult patients who have had head injuries, spinal cord
injuries, strokes, developmental disabilities, or amputations. she and her dogs have worked with physical, occupational,
speech, recreational, and mental health therapists to meet treatment goals in an in-patient rehabilitation setting. The DVD
runs 46 minutes and contains an introduction to the important roles associated with every animal-enhanced intervention.
The
book contains important information beyond what is covered in the DVD. The purpose of this presentation is to introduce
viewers to creative exercises that include dogs as tender, compassionate modalities in clinical and education settings. |
