Movie Star Dog Makes Special Visit To Young Patient At CHOP

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A young patient at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia recently received a special visit from the four-legged star of a recent movie.

Brooke Mulford is too sick to go to the movies, so when word spread on Facebook about her wish to see the movie, “A Dog’s Purpose,” a mission began that would make a dream come true.

Twelve-year-old Brooke has always loved animals. In fact, she’s surrounded by colorful stuffed animals in her hospital bed.

“All the ones I have right here, down with me, are my favorites,” she said, adding that only so many of them can fit in her arms.
