dogs informations

I’m interested in a career in working with therapy dogs. Where can I find more information?
I’d always wanted to be a vet, until one day I realized that there was no way I could handle the blood and gore and putting animals to sleep. Now, I think the job I’d love to have would be working with therapy dogs. What kind of schooling would this require? Also, where can I find more information? Ideally, I’d like to train and bring dogs to hospitals and nursing homes, but I’m open to other animals and ideas.
Thanks!

“If you are a licensed mental health or social welfare professional then it is possible to include your pet in the course of practicing your profession. For courses of study specific to AAT see the course work list.. There are programs for teaching a person to become a trainer of service dogs (which would be a paid position) or similar. Generally, however, AAT might supplement a more traditional career rather than itself being a career.”
