19 Touching Pictures That Prove Just How Magical Animal Therapy Can Be!

Animal therapy works wonders on physical and mental disabilities. Especially dog therapy, which makes victims forget their pain when dogs play with them. Here are some pictures from around the world that show you just how wonderfully animal therapy works.
