My Mom couldn't stop talking about the Golden Retreiver that came to visit on a Sunday. Mom has been in Health South for about 1 1/2 weeks and was so very excited to see this dog. She kept telling me how beautiful she was and how well trained. This dog really made Mom's day! Thank you so very much for the happiness your brought to her. Mom misses her dog back at home and this was a wonderful "pick me up" for her.

After my phone call request you have been visiting my father at Mary Washington Hospital and making him smile ever since and I can't thank you enough. My dad has been very depressed after many medical issues and unfortunately is still there but he always calls to tell me about your visits and I can literally hear his smile through the phone. Thank you SO much!

I just wanted to say how much I appreciated the visits from your pet therapy dogs. I have been in MWH for three weeks and will be here for another two. I have a golden retriever at home that I miss terribly. Amber, one of your pet therapy dogs and I have become buddies and she visits me every time she comes to the hospital. She is a true joy to spend time with especially since I can't see my own dog. I think that your group does wonderful things for sick people. I hope to one day be able to train my dog to do the same for others. Amber will always have a special place in my heart.
