Did you know that there is increasing medical data to suggest that trained animals help patients to heal better and feel better?

You will also get to meet our Malaysian pet dog Dr Kylie .................Topics covered will be : ......*Different Categories of Animal Therapy,......... *What 'Dr Dog Malaysia' does. .........*Requirements of dogs and people wishing to join........... * History of Pet Therapy Studies showing benefits of animal-human connections. ............ * Sharing by one of our Dr Dog volunteers- Meet a Dr Dog ............................. The Dr Dog programme was introduced by the Animals Asia Foundation (AAF) in Hong Kong. Jill Robinson, who founded AAF, says medical evidence indicates that people who have pets enjoy lower stress and cholesterol levels, a stronger immune system and less chance of suffering a heart attack. ................Since the programme started, AAF has witnessed the dogs changing many lives. For example, two patients ? an autistic child and a man suffering from senile dementia ? who had not spoken in years, began to speak after several visits from the dogs
