Just wondering how many of us have a therapy pet official or not. I have a therapy dog who saved my life!
Thanks for this!

I have an Emotional Therapy dog who should probably be retired(he is 17) but he just loves going to the hospital and loving on the old ladies! In addition to him helping me I take him out to visit the hospitals and he helps the elderly in my assisted living facility. Hes good old boy, so sweet. I'm going to miss him when he passes.

I have 2 cats that when the pain get real bad they stay up with me all night. And there are plenty of times I have cried in their fur and they would lick my face. They are the best cuddle bubbies ever

I guess I have a support group. I have 5 Beagles and they know when dad is hurting or down in the dumps.

I just lost my best friend, companion and therapy dog of 11 years, Fred, He was a Leonburger mix, big guy over 110 lbs. and beautiful long coat. He went with me every where. We would go hiking in the deep wilderness, ride elevators, listen to live music , I went places and did things I never would without him.
After his passing I went into a deep dark depressive place, now have a lab mastiff puppy and what a handful. My memories of Fred are warm and so blessed for him.
