When can therapy dogs enter an organization?

Therapy dogs are typically allowed to enter an organization with permission, which recognizes the need for consent from the organization and the understanding of the specific context in which these animals are being used. Organizations usually have policies in place that regulate when and how therapy animals are permitted on their premises to ensure safety and health standards are met.

This permission allows for consideration of various factors such as the environment's suitability for a therapy dog, the presence of individuals with allergies or phobias, and the overall purpose of having the therapy dog present. Therefore, requiring permission ensures that both the benefits of the therapy dog and the organization’s operational needs are balanced appropriately.
