Helping children to read and communicate. To improve the literacy skills of children by reading to a Pets As Therapy registered P.A.T. dog. Research shows that children can be nervous and stressed when reading to others in a group. However, when a P.A.T. dog enters the group the child becomes less stressed and less self conscious. Before long the children are looking forward to the reading experience as they are going to read to their new friend, the P.A.T. dog. Throughout 2010 Pets As Therapy ran a pilot programme in Westfields Junior School in Yateley, Hampshire. The results were extremely positive.
