Dogs Bring Joy and Cuddles to Hospital Patients
A team of dogs including Molly, Jake, and Harvey have racked up a combined 800 hours of volunteer work at local hospitals. The dogs lift the spirits of patients, their families, and staff, who pet them, feed them treats, and enjoy their presence. One volunteer even recounts the story of an unconscious patient’s recovery after a dog visit. This video is excerpted from BBC News.
