There is a show on CNN right now called Vital Signs – it’s about how animals help with people with medical conditions. You might be able to catch a re-broadcast later or find it online, IDK.
Can’t watch the video but it was probably part of the program. The show I saw was 30 minutes and included segments on therapy dogs working in a children’s hospital, cancer sniffing dogs and therapy llamas at a nursing home in Portland.

Could it be this one? It’s a segment, a little less than 10 minutes, but really well done.

Side note, I think this the first time I ever saw a news agency put the tamest charges as the title.
