In this moving talk — guest-starring her canine colleague Bailey—Yuko Morita describes how she became one of Japan's first facility dog trainers. Alongside videos of Bailey providing emotional support to the patients at a Yokohama children's clinic, Morita makes the case for bringing dogs (and their healthcare professional handlers) into hospitals everywhere.
