In just the past several years, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of service animals. You probably have noticed more people carrying small dogs with them as they get onto airplanes or leading a larger companion dog on a leash while strolling through your local mall or shopping center.
According to a 2019 New York Times article, the number of registered service animals increased from 2,400 in 2011 to nearly 200,000 today. In previous decades, service animals typically included seeing-eye dogs and the occasional helper monkey. But in the 2020s, it seems like they are everywhere.
The reason isn’t that animals suddenly became more helpful. It’s that an increasing number of people are discovering the astonishing healing power of dogs, cats, and other animals.
Our Furry Friends
Have you ever noticed that children have an instinctive attraction to animals? Toddlers will automatically make a beeline to dogs they see walking through the park. And one of the earliest and most popular field trips for young students is often to the children’s zoo or to the local farm where they can interact with cows, goats, sheep, and other docile animal friends.
So if you want to make your next celebration truly special and memorable, consider inviting some animals to the party! Parties’N’Fun specializes in providing petting zoos, pony rides, and other animal attractions to parties throughout South Florida.
Once in a Lifetime Fun
Kids won’t remember every birthday party you throw them. But they will remember the time you brought live animals to your home for them to interact with, ride on, and pet. Adding a petting zoo, pony rides, or other animal attractions to your next event can transform it from ordinary into amazing.
If you want your child to have the time of their lives and a birthday party or other special event they will remember forever, then call Parties’N’Fun and ask about our many animal attractions.
