TransIT staff assisted the organization to train therapy dogs to assist their owners to board and ride a bus.
Go Team Therapy Dogs is a national nonprofit with a local chapter in Frederick dedicated to training and placing therapy dogs in nursing homes, retirement communities, schools, disaster areas, or anywhere in which a dog can provide affection and comfort to people.
