I'm a Facility Dog

When we think of health heroes, we usually think of humans. But what about the four-legged friends who keep us happy and healthy?
Follow a facility dog who works to help patients in the hospital. These health heroes do the important work of comforting and motivating patients, and more. Meet a facility dog from Mayo Clinic, and find out how these health heroes save the day, every day!
This title was created in partnership with Amy Fabian, Certified Child Life Specialist and handler to Mayo Clinic's own facility dog, Alicia.
