Animal-Assisted Therapy is a term to describe treatment based on the incredible bond shared between humans and animals. The belief that humans could benefit from having a connection with animals on both a physical and psychological level has been around for centuries. Modern scientists are now researching this area with great interest to find evidence to prove these ancient beliefs.
This blog is about my experience with Animal-Assisted Therapy through Pony Riding for the Disabled (RDA). And how some programs aim to not only rehabilitate humans but also help enrich the lives of homeless animals.
