Abstract

Cilj ovog rada bio je opisati učinak pasa pomagača na osobe s invaliditetom koje ih koriste. Psi pomagači dijele se na pse vodiče, rehabilitacijske pse, terapijske pse i pse koje pomažu slijepim osobama. Svaka vrsta psa vodiča na jedinstven način pomaže s obzirom na individualno stanje svakog korisnika. Psi pomagači koriste se kako bi povećali neovisnost i kako bi doprinijeli svakodnevnom životu svojih korisnika. Osim toga, dostupna istraživanja pokazala su kako je njihov doprinos vidljiv i na socijalizaciju, društvo, mobilitet i psihičko stanje korisnika. U ovom radu, razrađena su sva područja na kojima osobe s invaliditetom mogu imati prednosti, ali osim toga i nedostatke. S obzirom na ove prednosti, psi pomagači predstavljaju oblik pomoći vrijedan osobama s invaliditetom i njihovim obiteljima, a činjenice koje su ovdje sadržane bitan su izvor znanja i informacija kako stručnjacima tako i široj javnosti.
