Newsworthy Pets: Therapy dog helps others

Molly, Odell, is a registered therapy dog who volunteers at Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital. Here she is in front of the hospital bulletin board introducing her. Molly started her new job last June. Her human, Jean Stone, is a longtime volunteer there, too. Send your cute (and newsworthy) pet photos to news@gorgenews.com with a brief description. Editor Trisha Walker is certain there are more very accomplished animals out there just waiting for their newspaper debut (as space allows).
