Dog Lovers Invited to Larson Ford’s Therapy Dog Showcase

Toms River, NJ (August 14, 2017)--Caregiver Canines® Therapy Dogs are bringing tail-wagging fun to Larson Ford customers and staff.

Visit the Larson Ford showroom at 1150 Ocean Ave (Rt. 88), Lakewood, NJ, on Sat, Aug. 19 and Mon, Aug 21, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Larson Ford will donate $5.00 for every vehicle sold during the month of August to Caregiver Canines®. The nonprofit program provides in-home visits with Certified Therapy Dogs and their handlers to Ocean County Seniors, Veterans, the elderly disabled, individuals with dementia, and family caregivers of loved ones with chronic illness.

Larson Ford, a longtime advocate of therapy dog programs and the services they provide in Ocean County, will showcase Caregiver Canines® alongside their cars to raise awareness of the benefits of therapy dogs in their Lakewood showroom.

“Larson Ford is very happy to partner with this wonderful nonprofit agency,” said Rob Larson, Vice President. “We are always looking for opportunities to give back to our community, and Caregiver Canines® brings such joy to people, we jumped at this chance.”

Lynette Whiteman, Executive Director of Caregiver Volunteers of Central Jersey, added, “We are so grateful to Larson Ford for their tremendous show of support. Since driving is an essential part of staying independent and one of the services our volunteers provide to seniors, this is a perfect partnership. How wonderful that a local business gives back to make life better for members of their community.”
