Be an Angel Therapy Dogs Ministry, Inc. is an all volunteer, non-profit organization, with 501c3 status, who participates in animal-assisted activities “Turning Frowns Upside Down” for many people, from children with special needs, to elderly persons with limited mobility. June and Ross Feezel who have been doing this type of work since the mid 90’s with the Northland, a Church Distributed, in Longwood are the founders of this organization. They began by volunteer with Northland’s pet therapy program called “PetPals” which was started by Gail and Tom Smith, who now are members of the Be an Angel organization.
he Be an Angel Therapy Dogs Ministry was established in 2004 not only to provide organization whose members are tested, insured and registered through Therapy Dogs Inc., a national organization, but also provides independence and an opportunity for volunteers from the Central Florida area to participate. Be an Angel Therapy Dogs Ministry extends from Volusia, Seminole, Orange, Lake and Osceola Counties in Central Florida, plus other teams wearing the blue gear in North Carolina, Georgia, Tampa and Jacksonville; all making a habit of “Turning Frowns Upside Down”! We have a large diversified group of people. It is overwhelming at times, but it is worth the energy and effort to develop. We have great people, great dogs, great facilities and always a great time.
