We visited Spring Valley Post Acute, and Kai wasted no time doing what he does best... melting into the floor and soliciting belly rubs.

The smiles, the laughter, the tears of joy… this is why the Snuggle Squad exists.
A few minutes with a therapy dog can change everything.
Thank you, SVPA, for welcoming us so warmly.
We can’t wait to come back.

Meet Maui, one of High Desert Snuggle Squads youngest cuddlers at just 5 months old.
And yes… this is exactly what he does best.

If you’ve ever thought...
"My dog LOVES people... they’d be such a great therapy dog"
…you might be right. And we would love to help you make it happen

We are officially inviting new dogs + handlers to join the High Desert Snuggle Squad!

Whether you have a gentle giant, a teeny cuddlebug, (or a mellow middle-sizer!)

High Desert Snuggle Squad provides beginner therapy dog prep in both group and private settings. Socialization and confidence building outings and activites. Public-access manners, and AKC CGC training and testing for all levels.

We offer continued support through evaluation and visits for all of our grads and volunteers.

Your dog gets purpose, your community gets joy, and you get photos like this

Last nights mission: bring calm to the chaos.... and Kai took that job very seriously.
In a busy gym full of music, lights, and people, he settled right in and reminded everyone that sometimes the best thing you can do… is just be still and let the cuddles come to you.

Our Snuggle Squad pups are trained to stay relaxed and grounded in any environment-- schools, community events, therapy visits, you name it.

If your school or program could use a little joy, comfort, and giant fluffy cuddles, message us to schedule a visit!
