Nice story...

Sweetheart really is.

“In the eyes of the wounded warriors we see a light, a light of determination and tenacity. That light glows when making contact with the eyes of Sweetheart,” Brugnola said. “She looks deep into their eyes, conveying a message -- a message only she and the soldier truly comprehend. And therein lies the magic, the wonderment and the connection these animals give to humans, the ability to bond and heal in very profound ways beyond human ability.”

I appreciate the sentiments, I really do -- but there's NO WAY this guy said that. NOBODY talks like that, not even an English major with a doctorate and a book full of $2 words. Wrote it, maybe, on his website. It's still embarassing.

I have a therapy dog. We visit all sorts of places and it’s always uplifting. Everyone wins.

Mohammad hated dogs, and I know why. Dogs can sense evil.

Where is Fort Sam Houston? I have a dog that should be a therapy dog. Sweetest most loving dog that as ever owned me.

Have two questions. Do people also train as well as adopt therapy dogs also from rescue shelters? Or is it restricted to purebred dogs. Thanks for all responses.
