Love on 4 Paws Inc

Love on 4 Paws, Inc. is an organization dedicated to the principle that animals can be used as an effective therapeutic means to assist in the treatments of patients. Both young and old, suffering from the depressive and painful effects of their illness. To accomplish this goal, we send many teams of volunteers and their animals to children's hospitals, schools for patients with specialized needs, adult hospitals, and facilities for the elderly. The purpose of these visits is to let our animals do what they do best; decreases loneliness, isolation and pain. Our program also assists the hospital personnel in identifying those areas where animal assisted therapy can provide them with another tool to enhance the comfort of their patients and thus, increase the overall quality of their care.
