The connection between humans and their dogs goes back as far as we can see. Now more than ever, we are discovering dogs’ abilities to perform a wide variety of tasks to assist humans in the work force. Betty Lou shines a light on the expanding role of therapy dogs to give health-enhancing encouragement and love to “children of all ages” all across America.
Check out the video of when Betty Lou arrived at the House near Scottish Rite. It was such a great day!
