Have Airports Gone to the Dogs?

Yes!  Did you know that Therapy Dogs can be very helpful at the Airport?  Paws 4 Passengers is a great program offered in the Reno-Tahoe Airport.  Therapy Dog teams, with one human and one lovable "Please Pet Me" dog, volunteer at the airport.  Their job is to reduce the stress and anxiety of traveling with smiles.  Dogs are proven to calm people in stressful situations and even lower blood pressure.

These teams walk through the airport giving passengers a bit of furry entertainment and love.  They provide a welcome distraction to a slow moving line, delays, cancellations, or a fear of flying. Children and adults both love the Paws 4 Passengers program!

The Paws 4 Passengers program thanks the many members of the traveling public who encourage them to continue this unique customer service and appreciate the airport's support.

I am working to bring Therapy Dogs to our airports in the Greater Tampa Bay Area!  Stay tuned for updates on our progress!
