Love on a Leash®

The Nashville chapter (previously known as the Music City chapter) was founded in September 2015. The chapter coordinates approximately 12 group visits each month at senior living facilities, special needs classrooms, schools, hospitals, doctor’s offices, and libraries in Davidson and the surrounding counties (Rutherford, Sumner, Wilson, Williamson, Cheatham and Robertson). Many members also visit other sites independently and several do hospice visits as well. The chapter feels great pride in serving the Nashville community and surrounding areas.
