About National Therapy Animal Day

United States
EVENT NAME:
Therapy Animal Day, Ntl.
EVENT CATEGORIES:
Animals Fish Insect & Birds , Health
United States
Dates Active:
Begins: Apr 30, 2025
Ends: Apr 30, 2025

DESCRIPTION:

Therapy animals are different than service animals. Service animals perform specific tasks their owners can't do due to disability, such as seeing-eye dogs or public service like K-9 police dogs.

Therapy animals fulfill a psychological function, providing comfort and companionship. Whereas a service animal is 'on the job' wherever its owner/handler goes, a therapy animal seeks out affection, cuddles, and to be touched. Therapy animals can be cats, dogs, birds, rodents, or anything that brings comfort to a human.

Goals of National Therapy Animal Day:

Recognize and honor therapy animals.
Raise awareness and educate the public about the role therapy animals play in enhancing the health and well-being of humans.
Honor the thousands of dedicated handlers (the human members of therapy animal teams) who volunteer their time and compassion during visits.
