TOP Dogs
Touch Our Pets Therapy Dogs - known as
TOP Dogs - is a voluntary organisation based in East Rand and Pretoria, South
Africa.
The primary objective of Top Dogs is to provide comfort and companionship by
sharing the dogs with those in hospitals, care facilities, other institutions
such as schools and wherever else the Therapy Dogs are needed.
Therapy Dogs elevate the mood of a facility in general, with those being visited
showing an increased happiness, calmness, and overall emotional well-being.
Studies have shown that a person holding, petting or talking to an animal will
cause a lowering of blood pressure, relief of stress and tension, and an easing
of loneliness and depression.
We are always looking to recruit handlers with suitable dogs, so that we can
reach more people in need.
We would like to
find more volunteers so that we can open up in other areas in Gauteng.

Jesus told a story about a King, who said,
"Come, you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom! For I was
sick and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me.
Then the righteous will ask, "Lord, when
did we see you sick or in prison & visited you?"
And the King shall answer, "Inasmuch as you
have done it to one of the least of these my brothers, you have done it
unto me.
Then he shall to the others, "Depart from
you cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his
angels. For I was sick & in prison, and you didn't visit
me." Matthew 25, 34 - 46
