Kudos to Therapy Dog Wally

Last week we got to see Therapy Dog Wally taking a break with some water fun. Wally’s now in the news for his incredible Therapy Dog work.

Tomorrow, the Pittsburgh Pirates will be applauding their fan of the game — a young boy named Cody.

Cody is one special kid who gets lots of loving, but what caught my eye, of course, was who was sitting with smiling Cody. None other than our own Therapy Dog buddy Wally!!! The story’s photo showing Wally and Cody together is just priceless and really seems to capture two old buddies sharing a wonderful private laugh. Kudos to the Pirates for celebrating their wonderful fan. And extra belly scratches to Wally for your healing work!
