Our puppy therapy events are a chance for employees to take time away from their desks, switch off and spend 15 minutes with a litter of our puppies. Even during the busiest working day, we believe that cuddling and playing with puppies is an ideal way to redress the balance.
So how does a puppy therapy event run?
We transform your office space into a specially constructed 'puppy garden’ and invite your employees to come down and spend some time with a litter of gorgeous Mini Australian Shepherd puppies. Our puppy space is enclosed and secure, ensuring both the puppies' safety and your staff’s comfort.
Events are broken down into 12 x 15-minute sessions, with each session accommodating up to a maximum of 5 people; meaning we can cater for up to 60 attendees on any given day.
We've tried and tested our running to ensure just the right amount of time for your staff to relax and completely forget about daily work struggles without disrupting your work day, while also ensuring the puppies benefit throughout.
Employees will head back to their desks feeling uplifted and energized, ready to deliver their best work!
All of our events are hosted by our knowledgeable and trained team, ensuring every member of staff enjoys their experience, whilst keeping the puppies safe and happy. Our dedicated team are also on hand to answer any questions employees may have and impart key information about the breed, puppy socialization and ethical breeding.
Each session plays a specific part in our puppy socialization program, meaning your staff play a direct part in our puppies vital development, giving a sense of gratification on top of all the cuddles and puppy euphoria!
Believe it or not, it’s not just the attendees that benefit from a puppy therapy event, the puppies gain the most from the experience! Our puppies get a great deal of vital socialization from our events, which is essential to their development and a great basis for them to grow into happy, healthy dogs.
Our socialization program helps puppies from a young age develop into confident social adult dogs, less likely to show aggressive or anxious behavior later in life. This is all while being constantly monitored by trained and experienced staff in a safe controlled environment.
What is Socialization?
Socialization is the learning/training process that a puppy must partake in to learn key life skills to ensure they are happy, confident and resilient dogs. Our socialization program starts at home as early as 2 weeks old!
This crucial window of opportunity allows puppies to develop positive and adaptable behaviors towards various people, animals, environments and experiences. Exposing puppies to a wide range of stimuli, in the right way, helps them become well-adjusted, confident, and well-behaved adult dogs.
In a world that often feels overwhelming, finding solace in unconventional methods is crucial for maintaining a happy and productive workforce. By interacting with puppies, our brains release chemicals such as oxytocin, serotonin, and dopamine – the trio responsible for elevating mood and reducing stress.
Scientific studies have shown a positive effect from the activity of interacting with a pet, including decreased blood pressure and reduced levels of cortisol. Animal therapy can reduce anxiety and assist with depression, motivation and loneliness.
As we journey through the therapeutic world of puppy companionship, it becomes evident that these furry friends are more than just pets, they are healers, stress-busters, and mood enhancers.
Having puppies in the office promotes a sense of calmness, reduces cortisol levels, and diminishes the effects of anxiety while simultaneously elevating motivation. To top it all off, the puppies benefit too, it’s a win-win for all involved!
