Os traemos una noticia que nos ha llamado mucho la atención. En un refugio de perros abandonados han puesto en marcha un programa de voluntarios con edades comprendidas entre los 6 y los 15 años que leen a los perros. Al parecer la lectura tiene efectos calmantes en los animales y les prepara para cuando sean adoptados.
Os ofrecemos parte de la noticia original abajo.

Launched in December as part of their Kind Kids outreach, the Shelter Buddies Reading Program offers training once a month to help kids identify and understand animal behaviors, after which time they may come by any time with their parents to read to the dogs.
In an interview with The Dodo, program director Jo Klepacki said that the simple act of reading to timid dogs has a profound effect on the animals, helping them become more friendly and likely to be adopted.
"Hearing a child reading can really calm those animals," Klepacki told The Dodo. "It is incredible, the response we've seen in these dogs."
