Lucie the canine therapist

Thu, Oct 16, 2008 (midnight)

Lucie is one of about 100 registered therapy dogs in the area, that are part of the nonprofit group Canine Therapists of Las Vegas. Therapy dogs are registered by a national organization to visit nursing homes, hospitals and other places a comforting animal is needed. They are cuddled and fed. Often the dog is a welcome visitor for those who can no longer have their own pets.
