• New Facility Application

    Please complete this form if you are a facility looking for OTD to provide therapy dog visits at your site on a regular basis. Please understand, due to high demand for animal-assisted activities and therapy programs, it can take quite some time (if at all) to start a program. Your application is also subject to a site assessment to determine your site's suitability for therapy dog visits and to mitigate any risks to the safety and well-being of our volunteers and their dogs. NOTE: You will need to re-submit this form if, after one year from your first submission, we have not yet found a team for you. This will keep our waitlist current and we will know that you still wish to have a therapy dog program at your facility.
