Lilly Kraus
Lilly Kraus is our certified assistant therapy dog.
She completed her training in 2024 at Dogs4-Success in Merscheid. She works in occupational therapy. As a Maltese-Poodle mix (Maltipoo), she does not shed and is allergy-friendly.
Lilly is very people-oriented, empathetic and curious. She learns very quickly and enjoys all kinds of games and tasks. As she is still very young, she is very active and playful. She is also very attentive and needs to talk a lot. Don't be alarmed if she barks sometimes.
The main aims of animal-assisted occupational therapy with Lilly are
- Promotion of perception processing
