Texas Children's Pawsitive Play Program is just as cute as it sounds. Designed to "enhance the emotional well-being of patients and families in the hospital," the four resident pups are somewhat celebrities around the hospital. 

  • For the holiday season this year, golden retrievers Elsa, Pinto, Pluto, and Bailey paraded through the halls with their handlers in matching flannel PJs, bringing smiles to the young patients and families admitted.

  • "There’s a lot of growth happening in our program," she shared. "and we're beyond excited to widen our ability to pawsitively impact more patients and families."
