In many areas of life, animals are helpful, and very often, they are emotionally enriching for us. So it is not surprising that animal-assisted interventions become more and more important in the social and educational field.
At the beginning, dogs and horses were very popular. In the meantime, the types of animals used as co-therapists have become more diverse. And this has various implications for practice.
Among other things this book discusses,
- chances, but also limits in working animal assisted with children and adolescents,
- legal aspects and “stumbling blocks”,
- the abilities of the respective “animal co-workers”,
- respectful treatment of the animals.
The book helps to realistically estimate one’s own means and chances to succeed. Many practical ideas are presented which help to creatively expand and shape one’s own work.
