Some reviews from places we visit!


"Kinga and her beautiful dogs worked with us in Seolta pre school for autism this year. The children love spending time with the dogs and completing activities with them. They gained so much from these experiences. I highly recommend this service."

"Tara Winthrop Private Clinic is lucky to have three dogs with their owners visiting our residents. Angie with Gizmo, Siobhan with Bailey and Anna and Audrey with Ted. Our residents love those visits and miss them very much. Hopefully we will be able to have them back soon."

"I'm very happy with the service provided for our clients from St.Vincent's Centre. The therapist is a nice lady and the dog is very well trained. She was coming to our centre for a year and everybody enjoyed the classes."

Noemi Summer  Activity Team, St.Vincent's Centre


All the children in the school love having their time for Animal Therapy. Children with Special Educational Needs are even more delighted, when it is their turn. Their faces light up when they see the dogs. The children become calm when brushing or stroking the dogs. The SEN children are energised and empowered when they give the dogs commands to follow, or take them for a walk on their leashes. Even the children who may be afraid of dogs at the beginning of the sessions, soon become less afraid and warm to the dogs. Children who find reading difficult, relax while reading to the dogs, and their fluency and understanding increases.
