About
The Healing Puppy Project began with the issue of stress. In our community, we deal with stress consistently, everyone has stress. It is a normal part of life. You can feel stress when you have too much to do or when you haven't slept well. You can also feel stress when you worry about things like your job, money, relationships, or a friend or family member who is ill or in crisis, and so many more factors that induce stress. This raises the question:
How do we fix this?
Studies have shown that even small interactions with dogs cause the human brain to produce oxytocin, which induces anti-stress-like effects, specifically a variety of physical health improving factors, and the stimulation of various types of positive social interaction. With this in mind, our team came up with the solution; Healing Puppy Project.
The mission of Healing Puppy Project is to provide the animal-assisted therapy service of calming, furry stress-relievers within our community. We accomplish this by bringing the warm presence of service dogs to such places as hospitals, airports and college campuses during finals.
We believe that dogs have the ability make a big difference in thousands of days.
