A disciplined companion dog and its trainer, Janet Golden, assist a nine-year-old boy with reading at a United States primary school. Research indicates that such well-trained dogs help children release the mental stress associated with reading. These dogs cannot criticize children for their reading mistakes, which helps them build confidence and overcome any reading disorder.(Photo: peopledaily.com.cn)
