(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Pet Partners has thousands of registered therapy animal teams across the U.S. and several other countries. These teams make an impact in their communities in diverse settings, including healthcare facilities, senior living centers, schools, courtrooms and justice system facilities, veteran facilities, and in response to crisis events. While most Pet Partners therapy animals are dogs, the Therapy Animal Program welcomes cats, equines, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, birds, miniature pigs, and llamas and alpacas.
