Several studies have documented the positive impact the presence of animals has on long-term care facility residents. As a result, many facilities have resident animals or programs that provide visits from pets in the community at large; and some even allow residents to have their own pets (as long as they are able to care for them).

In order to recognize the role of pets in enhancing resident quality of life and those canine caregivers who make a difference in the lives of our residents in long-term care, the AMDA Foundation will publish an 18-month (2010-2011) full-color calendar featuring photos and stories of Caring Canines.

Earlier this year we held a nationwide campaign to find deserving dogs to highlight in our first ever Caring Canine Calendar. The response was outstanding!

Over 60 LTC facilities from across the country submitted 170 snapshots of their favorite caring canine - including dogs that physicians or other practitioners own and take to their facility on a regular basis, resident canines that live at the facility, or residents’ dogs who are popular members of their community.
