Therapy Dog Program

The Ogden Community School District, in partnership with the Ogden Alumni Association and a specialized service dog training organization, is proud to launch a new therapy dog program. Alongside trained handlers, these therapy dogs will provide comfort, lower stress, and help students build confidence and social skills in the classroom. Thank you to our partners for bringing this meaningful program to our students, staff, and community.
