I have a puppy that I'm wanting to use as a therapy dog in the future. I have her in a puppy class right now, but there was just her and a small dog. The other dog's owners had to drop out. So she will not be getting much socialization there. I would like to know what placed or programs other people have used in the Killeen, Belton, Temple area. She is a LARGE puppy and plays rough right now. I have to keep telling myself she is a puppy, but I want to be somewhat aggressive on getting her into the correct program if I want to use her as a therapy dog. I would like to know how things have worked out at the different places.

About what sort of therapy dog are you talking, a personal therapy aide for yourself? a visitation friend for a healthcare setting? You should ask through the TAMU veterinary medicine program. Also checking through the nursing homes and hospitals.
