Volunteers from K9 TheraPets of Hawaii will teach children (and their parents) safety steps when approaching or greeting a dog.  Besides being incredibly adorable, all furry wet-nosed quadrupeds in this program are registered therapy dogs with the national Alliance of Therapy Dogs.  A meet and greet session will follow the presentation.  Children must be accompanied by a parent or caregiver.

These volunteers visit hospitals, nursing homes, libraries, schools and facilities where interaction with their dogs provide a beneficial “therapeutic contact” for people.

This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Library Kapolei.
