“But there are other animals that wear vests whose job is to get petted and loved on,” says Pam Killingsworth, president of the Miami Valley Pet Therapy Association. “They can be dogs, cats, rabbits and even miniature horses.”
MVPTA is a volunteer organization that trains and arranges pet visits for any community event or group. Teams from the group visit hospitals, nursing homes, libraries, the V.A. and hospice facilities. You’ll also see them at community nights out, at safety town in conjunction with a local police department and at the Montgomery County Jail.
