The Noble Dog Hotel is Located in Greenville, South Carolina, The Noble Dog Hotel is a locally owned, canine-only hotel defined by simplicity, comfort, and functionality. They offer several services that cater to your dog’s every need. Alliance of Therapy Dogs is the group we will work with. Their role is to help other canine/human teams become certified to make visits throughout the community.

In order for a new Team to become certified they must pass a controlled observation, which would take place at Noble Dog Hotel. We will assist in testing the dog/handlers ability to communicate and the dogs ability to respond to commands, stay focused, walk on a leash, not jump up on people or be laid back enough to be pet anywhere on their body. Once they pass this portion they then must complete 3 observed visits, 2 of which must be at a medical facility or nursing home. We hope ya’ll will participate every Tuesday after dinner at 6:30pm.
