Paws to Read In-Person
Practice reading aloud with a canine friend! Heart of Texas Therapy Dogs* is partnering with the Arlington Public Library to bring dogs for children to read with. Reading to dogs helps young readers improve their skills in a relaxed, friendly environment. Bring your own book or borrow one of ours.
There will be sign-ups to read with the therapy dogs before the program begins. Space is limited to the number of dogs available.
This program is for ages 5 - 12 only. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at (817) 459-6900 or by email at LIBYouthServices@arlingtontx.gov.
Thank you to the Friends and Foundation of the Arlington Public Library for their generous support of our programming.
*Heart of Texas Therapy Dogs is a local group, comprised of Alliance of Therapy Dogs, our national organization, members. They are a non-profit 501(c)(3), all volunteer organization that services the DFW area with therapy dogs.
