Usually you have to go through a special course to make sure your dog is okay, and I know you have to be 18 to handle the dog. Check into it. This sounds like something great, and keep taking your dog to the neighbors!

Contact therapy dog international at www.therapydoginternational.com.
They will give you all the information you need,as they are one of the agencies that tests the dogs in order to become therapy dogs.The look on a persons face and the happiness you bring to them when you visit at a hostpital or nursing home with your dog is more than rewarding.

You have to take her through the course for therapy dogs and then speak with the hospital after she is certified. Good luck!

contact a service dog training facility. they should be able to give you the answers you need. sounds like a great dog. keep her socialized like that. ask the girls parents if you could bring the dof over more often.
