Description

The Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at UNLV Well-Being Team partners with Pet Partners of Las Vegas to offer therapy pups as a resource for our community members. Come and spend some time with furry friends. Per akc.org, "Therapy dogs provide relief to those in anxiety-provoking situations, bring comfort to those who are grieving or lonely, and offer affection to humans who are in institutions such as hospitals, nursing homes, and schools."
