TAMPA, FL -- A group of seniors is about to get an unusual brand of therapy. They won't have to go anywhere and the experience won't cost them a dime, but the rewards are priceless.
Today, Jasmine the pit bull will visit residents at the Fountains Assisted Living Facility in Tampa. Pit bulls often get a bad reputation for being aggressive but Jasmine is a Certified Animal Assistance Therapy Pet. She's also a Pit Bull Ambassador for the Hillsborough County Animal Shelter.
Jasmine has passed several tests to ensure she's safe and sure to bring a smile to anyone she visits.
That was certainly the case earlier this month when Jasmine visited the Emeritus at Carrollwood.
