Therapeutic Dog Training Workshop

An experiential workshop combining work with therapy dogs to develop children’s emotional and social skills. During the workshop, the children work alongside the dogs and acquire tools for everyday coping, such as strengthening self-confidence and a sense of competence, developing empathy, and improving communication with their peers. At the same time, the activity focuses on teamwork, listening, and resolving conflicts within the group, as well as learning practical tools for emotional regulation and appropriate ways to cope with challenges.

The workshop is led by a certified instructor together with two therapy dogs from the “Dogtov” Center for Canine-Assisted Therapy, managed by Naama Gonen, a canine-assisted therapist and parent instructor.
