Afternoons with Puppy: Inspirations from a Therapist and His Animalsby Aubrey H. Fine
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Afternoons with Puppy is a heartwarming account of dynamic relationships and outcomes involving a therapist, his therapy animals, and his patients over the course of almost two decades. It is a narrative of Dr. Fine's experiences and the growing respect for the power of the animals effect on his patients and himself. Book News Annotation:This inspiring book is dedicated to the memory of a therapist's
canine co-therapist. Fine (California State Polytechnic U.), an
expert on animal-assisted therapy (AAT), and Eisen, a college
instructor in New York state whose learning disabled son has
benefitted from AAT, attest to the opening quote that "there is no
psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face." They offer
personal insights on the human-animal bond, young patients' letters
to therapy dogs, resources, and photos of Puppy.
