Pet Partners of St Louis

Think all helper animals do the same job? They don’t.

Therapy animals, assistance (or service) animals, and emotional support animals each have different roles.

Therapy animals are registered with organizations like Pet Partners and visit many people in places like hospitals, schools, and senior living communities to share comfort and connection.

And yes, you can often say hello to a therapy animal during a visit. Just ask the handler first.

Take a look at the chart and tell us: What fact surprised you the most?

Follow Pet Partners to learn more about therapy animals and the people who volunteer with them.

🚨 SOS: LONG-TERM FOSTERS NEEDED! 🚨

These dogs have been waiting OVER 4 YEARS for their chance at a better life. We finally have an opportunity to get them out, but there is one major problem… WE HAVE NO FOSTERS. Most people want to foster a golden, which is understandable but leaves this large group of dogs behind, again.

We are desperately looking for long-term fosters willing to open their homes to mixed-breed dogs, including some who may have medical needs.

Four years is far too long to wait. They have spent enough time waiting for someone to give them a chance, and we don’t want to lose this opportunity simply because we don’t have places for them to land.

Can you foster? Or know someone who might be able to help? Please reach out. These dogs have waited long enough.
