BARK Therapy dogs bring joy to kids and adults in various locations throughout Southern California.

BARK dogs listen to children read in libraries and elementary schools to help kids learn in a fun, nonjudgmental atmosphere. Kids love to read to the soft, furry listeners. BARK dogs also bring joy to college students during finals, senior centers, hospitals, veterans, disabled adults, and community events from the San Fernando Valley to San Diego. All dogs and handlers undergo a 16-point evaluation before being certified as a BARK Therapy Dog team.
