Discover Theo, the weighted dog, the perfect companion for your residents.
Theo is specially designed to function as a comforting companion. Its variable weight provides users with a deep, soothing sensation. Theo’s soft, floppy body can lay across your lap or shoulders, and even sit up beside you. The fur, paw-pads, beads, eyes, and nose all provide unique textures for tactile exploration.
He’s the perfect lapdog for older adults with Alzheimer’s, dementia, or social isolation. His warm, heavy body feels lifelike, which can help to relieve stress and sharpen focus without the responsibility of caring for a live animal.
The hot & cold pack in his tummy can be removed and heated in the microwave for 60 seconds, or chilled in the fridge. When heated, the ceramic beads inside emit a gentle lavender aroma.
In order to maximize the development of the proprioceptive system, which allows for better awareness of our body, and its positioning in space, the use of weighted products can be an effective solution. In addition to providing better physical awareness, these weighted products help to soothe anxiety and unravel tensions in the body.
