Comfort Dogs Visit Newtown, Conn. community

The residents of Newtown, Conn. are getting help from volunteers skilled in offering comfort. And they do it without saying a word.

The volunteers are the K-9 Comfort Dogs and they're part of the Lutheran Church Charities (LCC) headquartered in Addision, Ill.

As early as Saturday, Prince and Barnabas, two of the LCC K-9 Comfort dogs had arrived in Newtown, Conn. By Monday, up to 10 dogs and 14 handlers were working in the Newtown community.

Dogs in general are a gift from god.I was convinced of that after watching the boy with Downes Syndrome interacting with the dog.
