A few weeks ago, I was watching TV and saw this interview with the senior citizen twin sisters from a Walgreens commercial. Because I’d never seen a therapy dog on TV before, I was surprised to see one of the women had a dog on her lap and to hear her say it was a therapy dog. It made her comfortable and allowed her to relax in stressful situations, like being interviewed in front of a live audience on TV. Many senior citizens are benefiting from pet therapy, to deal with everything from nervousness to illness to simply needing an animal friend.
