ANIMAL THERAPY PROJECT
Empowering individuals
and animals through community
ANIMAL THERAPY PROJECT AT A GLANCE
Animal Therapy Project (ATP) is the result of a partnership between a child therapist and a dog trainer. ATP provides a variety of fun-loving, temperament-tested dogs with multiple energy levels and personalities to customize each experience to meet our clients’ specific needs.
Animal Therapy Project (ATP) believes in the inherent virtue of children and animals. We believe that every child deserves to have positive experiences with animals and that those experiences can nurture, sustain and inform their lives. ATP seeks to enrich the lives of both animals and individuals through community.
