我要评论Two weeks have passed since a deadly mass shooting killed 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, and the resilient students and faculty are beginning to come back to their classrooms.
The return comes after several tough days spent organizing to fight for increased gun control and mourning the teenagers, football coach, and athletic director who lost their lives during the tragedy.
In wake of the traumatic event, the school's principal, Ty Thompson, thought some therapy dogs would help provide extra comfort upon return, and the photographs are pretty precious.

In fact, the pups were such a big hit that Thompson invited them back, increasing the number so more students could benefit from the animals.

The official Instagram account for Humane Broward's Animal Assisted Therapy also shared several photos of students smiling with the animals, explaining the dogs "participated in classes all day, made lots of new friends and provided unconditional love and comfort."
Today our therapy dogs welcomed the students back to school. They participated in classes all day, made lots of new friends and provided unconditional love and comfort. It’s an honor to be part of the comfort and healing process at MSD with their amazing students, principal and faculty. #msdstrong #reclaimthenest #eaglepride #therapydogs #prayforparkland #parklandstrong #strongertogether #westandtogether #marjorystonemandouglas #douglasstrong #neveragain #enoughisenough #endgunviolence #protectourchildren
