I am appalled by Pet Partners' most-recent PR effort: "I'm just here to hold the leash." This message undermines the professionalism that many talented and dedicated individuals and organizations have worked for so diligently over the past 40+ years. Such glib advertising denies the crucial animal-welfare role handlers play in supporting their therapy animals. It contradicts the competencies purportedly supported by the Pet Partners organization. Such inconsistent messaging is a dismal warning of caution to all who deal with Pet Partners: do their handlers really know what they are doing? Or are they merely holding the leash?
