Rainbow Animal Assisted Therapy brought Ridley (one of her service dogs) to demonstrate some of the ways trained service dogs assist patients at hospitals. These service dogs work mainly with children and can sense when a child may need additional comforting. They are able to get kids to do things ( like moving injured parts of their body) when the child will not do the task when requested to do so by an adult.
