Dogs And Physical Therapy: How An Injured Athlete Can Benefit From A Trained Pit Bull
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. The notion of animal-assisted therapy is hardly a new idea, inasmuch as it has become an instrumental component of both the physical and emotional well being throughout the health care industry.
