Ted, the therapy dog, helping support Wisconsin's military kids

By Sgt. Katie Eggers | Wisconsin National Guard April 24, 2017


MADISON, Wis. - When Cindy Brosig first started using her G.I. Bill to earn her master's degree in nursing, she thought animal therapy was just a way for people to bring dogs to the hospital for patients to pet.

After devoting two years of research, papers and projects to animal therapy, she learned there was much more to it.

"I didn't really realize how supported it was in the medical world," Brosig said. "So I thought, 'wouldn't it be wonderful to take this to the kids?'"
