Bettina shows Memorable Pets at the American Association of Geriatric Psychiatrists Conference!

I was amazed at how much attention our table received. The pets are definitely why people stopped by. As I explained how they were used for therapy and comfort, I received a lot of confirmation on the concept. One psychiatrist even said to me in a low voice, “We spend so much money on research, but it’s really things like what you’re doing that makes all the difference in people’s lives.” This was very gratifying to hear!
