Use the animal shelters for therapy for handicapped persons and / or at risk of social exclusion

Addressed to: Animal Welfare Associations and 4 more

They are well known the benefits that animals provide to people in terms of therapy (against depression, stress, etc.) and thus saving on medicines, by the Administration, that this entails.

Also, another way the animal shelters could be useful is to work in harmony with centers for handicapped people or at risk of social exclusion to make this type more common therapies.

Animal-assisted therapy is aimed at promoting the improvement in physical, social, emotional and cognitive functioning of people. The animals most often used for these therapies are dolphins, horses and dogs.

The use of dogs can be performed with the help of all animal shelters, to help with specialists, using dogs in their care. It is a situation where everyone wins, people who do therapy, and obviously the dogs who feel loved and feel the love that people can give.

Since the Autonomous Governments, Municipalities, the National Government, the Animal Protection and Assistance Centers and Hospitals must all fight to get this is a great way to improve the lives of hundreds of patients and animals.
