An experiment to study the benefits of dog-assisted intervention in a long-term nursing home was carried out in two care homes in Lyon. It brought together trained visiting dogs with their handlers and elderly people. More than a simple activity, the experience proved to be therapeutic, soothing and stimulating for people who are often withdrawn.
