内容正文:
你听说过狗医生吗?没错,狗狗也是可以做医生的,他们统称为治疗犬。治疗犬是专门为特定人群提供情感安慰和压力缓解的狗,它们温顺友好,愿意被陌生人拥抱和抚摸,对儿童有着超强的包容和耐心。完全不可能攻击人类?没错,是完全不可能。哪有人就要问了,这不就是服务犬吗?还真不是。服务犬都是经过特殊技能训练,用于执行特定任务的犬种,不过的导盲犬就是服务犬的代表。服务犬更多用于帮助身体有残疾的人,而治疗犬主攻心理问题,他们是利用自己强大的治愈能力来安抚人类的心灵。千万不要小瞧治疗犬,太多的真实案例可以证实,像抑郁症、自闭症、阿尔茨海默症和PDSD创伤后遗症等等一系列精神疾病,治疗犬都可以做到有效缓解甚至治愈这些疾病。只要是性格友善的狗狗都有资格成为治疗犬。之所以说有资格,因为他们还需要完成相应的课程,通过了考试,获得了证书,才能成为真正的治疗犬。当然了,要说最有名气的治疗犬犬种,必须得是博人山小博的整体气质和外貌简这就是为治疗犬而生的,这也是博文山为什么会被人们亲切的称为博医生的原因。其实在整个动物界,狗一直都是最特殊的存在,因为他们与人类相辅相成,他们的字典里没有背叛人类这四个字,所以狗在人类心中的地位也是其他任何动物都无法替代的。
Unusual volunteers come here. What a good boy. Those were words I never expected to hear from my mom when I visited her in hospital. Mum has been sick for a long time now, and he often seemed sad and tired. I didn't expect to hear her laughing. IT has been a long time since I heard my mom sounding so happy, but when I rounded the corner, I understood everything. Mum had a very unusual visitor, a golden retriever, a regular volunteer at the hospital. Anna was there with her therapy dog, ban jo. Anna was kind enough to share her story with me, an animal lover from an early age. Anna has always had a dogger to at home since he was Young. Often just playing with them was enough to help her feel happy, relaxed after a long day. But one day anna realized that not everyone was lucky enough to have a pet. SHE started thinking, what could he do? Could SHE work with her own dogs to help others?
Before long, he found the answer. Today, anna and bang jo often visit places like hospitals and nursing homes to bring a moment of joy to people who are sick, sad, lonely or disabled. Benn jo has worked as a therapy dog for almost three years. When people are stressed, IT often takes them longer to get Better. A therapy dog helps people feel Better and be less stressed, often just by being there. At the hospital, mum petted benzo gave him a snack and even threw a small ball for him to catch. This made her forget that he was sick, if only for a moment. For people like my mom, moments like this are very valuable. SHE always looks forward to my visits, but now he also looks forward to seeing anna and benzo again, if i'm lucky enough to have a dog of my own in the future, i'll try to volunteer just like anna and bang jo.

Discuss the question.
1. How can therapy dogs help people to feel less stressed?
2. What qualities do you think a therapy dog should have?
3. Can you think of any other ways to help people in hospital?
A therapy dog helps people feel better and be less stressed , often just by being there !
A therapy dog should be friendly, gentle, patient, and calm.
We can read stories to them, talk with them to keep them company, bring them flowers or small gifts.
Thank You
Kindness can come in many forms, even from our four-legged friends. Let's carry the spirit of empathy and connection in our hearts.
