In the quiet, compassionate confines of the Center for Hospice Care (CHC) in Mishawaka, a heartwarming alliance has been forged, bringing solace to those in the twilight of their lives and their cherished pets. Recognizing the indissoluble bond between humans and their animal companions, CHC has partnered with Pet Peace of Mind, a national nonprofit organization, to ensure no patient needs to worry about their pet's well-being during their final days. This initiative not only alleviates emotional stress but also introduces a furry bundle of joy, Teddy, a Mini Australian Labradoodle therapy dog, to the mix, adding a layer of comfort and companionship for everyone involved.
