Canine Assisted Interventions | The Patients' Perspective

Hear how Kobe, Rogers’ four-legged employee, is making a difference for adults and adolescents in OCD, anxiety, and depression residential treatment.

Part of Rogers’ Canine Assisted Intervention program, Kobe helps residents achieve identified treatment goals and address issues like assertiveness, self-confidence, motivation, self-care, and contamination.

“It wasn’t just pet therapy, where you sit there and pet the dog, and then they leave and you go, ‘Oh, I feel less depressed.’ It’s more interactive,” says Ian, a former patient at Rogers in Oconomowoc.
