What website should I visit to find a therapy dog training program for my pekingese-poodle when he gets older?
So far, I am not finding a straightforward website that will allow me to find local therapy dog training programs.
I know I need to first determine if he has aptitude for this line of work.
If he has aptitude for it, I would like him to be able to visit nursing homes for example but he has to obtain credentials from a program first.

How do I go about training and certifying a dog to be a therapy dog?
Hopefully in the near future, my fiance and I are looking to get a puppy and I have always wanted to be able to go into hospitals, especially childrens hospitals, with my dog and give those kids a better experience.
We’re looking to get a Lab, Boxer, or German Shep. (Unless something else comes across out paths.) We live in SE Wisconsin, right around Milwaukee.
So basically, I’m looking for any and all information I can get about therapy dog training and certification.
