This work was developed in order to assess changes in negative thoughts after participating in a stress management workshop assisted by therapy dogs, for thus have evidence of the application of canine assisted therapy, as support of cognitive restructuring. 9 women attended the workshop. The participation of the therapy dogs was active. Negative thoughts were assessed with the Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire (ATQ), the results indicate a significant decrease in the scores of ATQ. We conclude that therapy dogs can help in the process of cognitive reframing, when the designed activities focus on the active participation of therapy dog to help people to detect and challenge automatic thoughts.
