In addition to Reading with Rover, which is based on Washington state, there are many such reading programs around the country. The goal of all these programs is to improve the reading skills of children with reading problems by having children read to dogs.When reading aloud in the classroom, many children with reading problems and poor reading skills feel frightened. They have little confidence in themselves and are afraid of being laughed at. They may also feel that reading is difficult, boring and stressful. However, when children read to dogs, reading becomes a fun and non-stressful experience for both the children and the dogs. Dogs don' t criticize, judge or laugh at the children' s reading ability.Reading with Rover and other programs like it have been a huge success, resulting in improved reading skills for a significant number of participating children with reading problems. Tn addition to making learning enjoyable, when children read to dogs, it increases their sense of worth and self-confidence.As part of the Reading with Rover program, the children read to dogs that are registered therapy dogs. These are dogs that have been trained and tested. Along with their owners, these dogs have become registered therapy teams.A recent research study was conducted by the University of California, which concluded that when children read to dogs, it can increase their reading skills by thirty percent.Children who took part in this study remarked, “I feel relaxed when I am reading to a dog because I am having fun. ” “The dogs don' t care if you read really badly so you just keep going.”When children read to dogs and improve their reading skills, it becomes just another example of how wonderful dogs are and how important they are to our society. 66.
