Good information. Encouraging to have AAT as an option to use with individuals that may not be responding to traditional therapy. More research needs to be done in this area. I have observed very positive reactions to general interactions with dogs in animal assisted activities in nursing home settings.

This presentation was difficult for me to get through, which was surprising based on the topic. Slides were black and white, no real-life or animated pictures to liven things up, no video recording of the presenter to help me visually attend. I appreciated seeing the results of the research the presenter had done, and being made aware that ASHA isn't currently saying anything on the topic of animal assisted therapy.
