TheraPetics, founded in 1992, helps people with physical disabilities to live more independently and with a better quality of life in a world that is largely directed toward the requirements of those with full mobility. Our program trains and distributes highly skilled assistance animals known as service dogs. A service dog helps the individual to live and work with less help from others, greater confidence in themselves, and a vastly improved self- image. The partnership is long term and represents an evolving and growing relationship that can adapt to changing conditions and circumstances.
