Meet the Facility Dogs at UC Davis Children's Hospital

Facility Dogs are expertly trained to help comfort and normalize the experience of children and teens during a visit to the hospital. The facility dogs at UC Davis Health were trained and provided free of charge to the child life specialist handlers from Canine Companions for Independence (‪@CanineCompanions‬). Currently there are four facility dogs who work on different units at the hospital: Zeebee, Huggie, Paloma and Daniels.
