Happy National Dog Day! ❤ 🐕 We're lucky to have amazing pet therapy dogs like Scout, Max, and Lina who bring joy, comfort, and stress relief to our hospital family. Studies show that pet therapy can reduce stress, anxiety, and pain in patients, while also promoting social interaction and emotional well-being. We're grateful for the love and companionship of all our furry friends - past and present - who've been part of our pet therapy team, spreading joy and comfort wherever they go. 🐾❤ #NationalDogDay #TherapyDogs #NorthwestHealthcare #NWHC #HealthcareHeroes
