Tails & Tales | Read to Therapy Dogs

Tails & Tales pairs children with friendly therapy dogs in a relaxed library setting where kids read aloud to their furry listeners. This low-pressure program helps build reading confidence and fluency—dogs are non-judgmental audiences who simply enjoy the company. Kids benefit from the calming presence of animals while practicing their skills, and many find it more motivating than reading alone. It's a wonderful way to encourage a love of reading while experiencing the joy of interacting with well-trained, gentle dogs.
