Therapy dogs for cancer patients?
My boss is in TGH ( Tampa General Hospital) and has leukemia. She LOVES dogs and i really want to find a way to do something nice. Can someone please tell me how i go about this or if i even can or what the cost would be. Are their volunteer groups? Please any information will be appreciated i know she will appreciate this

First, check with the hospital to make sure that they allow therapy dog visits. Then, check with the hospital's clinical social work department or the cancer care coordinator. They often arrange therapy dog visits for patients, and sometimes actually have dogs on staff. If the hospital allows therapy dog visits but doesn't have any dogs on staff, contact TDI or the Delta Society. They should be able to put you in contact with local therapy dog volunteers who may be willing to visit if the hospital allows it.
