NBC's TODAY Show: How Eliza the Therapy Dog Made a Paw-sitive Impact on Patients in Athens, GA

Featuring our Athens, GA center, this segment highlights the heartwarming story of Eliza, a therapy dog who frequently visits our center to assist our patients with activities that teach them life skills like counting, working on school readiness and helping with therapy goals. Eliza has built a very special relationship with the kids, and is beloved by team members.

When Eliza’s owner and former Hopebridge RBT, Donna, submitted their story to Chewy’s annual Chewy Clause sweepstakes, she had no idea that it would result in such a heartwarming surprise not only for Eliza, but the entire Athens, GA center.

Watch the paw-sitively adorable surprise below:

Thank you Chewy and TODAY Show for recognizing the impactful work of Eliza the therapy dog, Donna, and our dedicated team members that serve our patients every day.
