Where you can find up to date information about the program, current LAP teams and LAP therapy dogs candidates, scheduled visits, and much more.
Lend A Paw is committed to enhancing the lives of individuals experiencing physical, mental, emotional or life challenges by providing therapy dogs to offer warmth, compassion, unconditional love and a healing environment. The program is designed to rescue dogs from the shelter and train them to be therapy dogs. Individuals are also invited to join our LAP team with their own dogs provided the dogs have the required obedience and temperament for therapy work.

Scheduled Visits - Week of April 4th

There are two scheduled Lend A Paw visit for this week:

Wednesday, April 6th @ 10:30 AM:
Edelman Childrens Courthouse
201 Centre Plaza Drive
Monterey Park, CA

Imagine spending a day at the courthouse waiting to speak to judges and attorneys about your life. Now that's stress! Please join Lexee and Chellee to add a little comic relief for good kids ranging in age from 5 to 17 years old. It will put a smile on their faces and yours too! We need a minimum of 4 Therapy Teams, and can take a maximum of 6 for this visit. Be sure to bring your $5 parking ticket inside with you so they can validate it. If you have any questions, please contact Chellee.

Sunday, April 10th @ 10:30 PM:
Aegis Assisted Living
10801 Lindley Ave
Granada Hills, CA

This is a wonderful assisted living facility which specializes in caring for individuals with memory loss. The folks really love to get their monthly hugs and kisses from the dogs and we need at least 3 therapy teams to carry out this visit.

*This site MUST have a lead volunteer for this visit, otherwise we will have to cancel. Please contact Sharon if you can help.
