Animal Assisted Therapy consent

Your specialist maybe working with the assistance of a professionally trained and assessed therapy dog, Comet (labradoodle). We provide this as an additional service; we do not charge an additional fee.

While Comet is well trained and socialised, there are always risks with working with animals. These included the risk of allergies, illnesses and personal injury.

I consent to the presence of a Therapy Dog:
- I acknowledge that my child and myself have no known illness or allergy that would prevent me from interacting with and handling the Therapy Dog.
- I understand that Comet undergoes routine vet checks to maintain his health, however there are some illnesses that can pass between humans and dogs.
- I understand that Therapy Dogs are socialised, trained and assessed to work with people, however I acknowledge the risks of working with animals, including the risk of injury.
- I understand that following the specialists instruction on interacting with Comet at all times is crucial to enjoying a safe interaction.
- I acknowledge that my child and myself have no known pre-existing dog phobias or fears.
*
- Yes, I agree to all of the above and wish to have Comet the Therapy Dog present for our consultation if available
- No, I don’t agree to all of the above and do not wish to have Comet the Therapy Dog present at our consultation
Please note: It may not be safe for people whom are immune-suppressed to work with therapy animals. Please discuss this with your doctor.
