Proof that PAT Dogs are priceless

PAT Dog Loki has been back visiting her local hospital's Intensive Care Unit and last week she spent some time with a stroke patient.

Amazingly, with Loki around, the patient was encouraged to use her left hand. Loki also assisted with speech therapy – her presence inspired other patients to give her verbal commands. Great work!
