Dr. Mike Moore of Southside Animal Hospital has a personal mission to help war heroes and their service animals. One of the people that Dr. Moore helped was Niroby Wilson. Wilson served the US. In 2004, he suffered from a serious injury that almost led to paralysis. But he also needed additional help since his 12-year-old service dog Kimbo also required surgery.

Dr. Moore introduced Wilson to the Hank’s & Eli’s Fund which he created back in 2012. “If anything, I would tell Doc and them that I love him, because they saved my baby,” said Wilson.

The first step is to consider whether your puppy is a good candidate. He or she should enjoy being touched by strangers, is friendly towards all kinds of people, and can remain calm in any situation.

Q&A: Can any dog be a therapy dog?

therapy dog qualification

You may see your dog as a great, loving companion, but that doesn’t mean he or she can immediately qualify as a therapy animal. Here’s what you should know:

Certified therapy dogs can be of any breed. They can be Beagles, Labrador Retrievers, Poodles, and more. However, your dog needs to be friendly and affectionate even to strangers, and pass an obedience test. According to the AKC, “A dog who can’t leave it on cue or interact with children in a friendly manner will not succeed.”
