Collage of therapy dogs visiting with nurses and patients. Text reads: "Happy National Nurses Day – From your biggest and furriest fans!" Medical-themed icons like a heart, stethoscope, and syringe decorate the image. Center for Human-Animal Interaction and chai.vcu.edu at the bottom.

To the nurses who go above and beyond every single day, thank you. Our dogs love visiting you just as much as you love them. Here’s to the heart of healthcare!

A “Therapy Dogs in Action” post featuring Jeanne and her therapy dog Zeke. They’re outdoors at a community event, seated on a red blanket. A young child nearby is reading a book. Jeanne is smiling and petting Zeke, a shaggy-haired dog with a friendly face.

Sometimes all it takes is a wagging tail to turn a whole day around.
