Who are we and why do we do what we do:

Established in 2018 and rebranded in 2026, the Pawsitive Impact Therapy Team (formerly known as the Top Dog Therapy Team), is a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of people through the healing powers of our canine partners. Our team of therapy dogs and handlers provide free visits to medical centers, education centers at all levels, recovery centers, public events, one on one hospice and cancer treatment comfort and bereavement support.

 

We have earned full affiliation with the American Kennel Club as a Therapy Dog Organization, and have been a multi-time winner of the Tribune Review Best of Best Non-Profit in Westmoreland County. We are committed to enhancing the quality of life for people of all ages and abilities, and we have seen our services make a real difference in the lives of those we serve.
