Why Dogs Support Recovery

At River Garden, we honour this bond because dogs: Improve Mental Health: They offer non-judgmental love, combating loneliness and anxiety. Encourage Physical Health: Caring for a pet promotes essential routine and physical activity. Provide Purpose: Responsibility for a dog is a powerful motivator for engagement and progress. Offer Companionship and Security: They fill a void and provide comfort in a new environment.
