Listen Later

In this episode, I am joined by Sharlet Jensen, author of 'Paws for Progress' and owner of Speech Dogs, as she discuss the wide scope of animal-assisted interventions beyond therapy dogs, incorporating various animals like cats, horses, and farm animals.

Sharlet shares her journey of integrating therapy dogs into her speech therapy practice, including the benefits, such as rapport building and sensory regulation, and challenges like liability insurance.

Sharlet also offers practical insights on selecting and working with therapy dogs, making a case for the potentials in the speech therapy field.
