Today’s Good News: Strangers Gift Service Dog To Girl With Rare Genetic Condition
A girl with a rare genetic disease now has a service dog to help her with tasks she can’t do alone and it’s all thanks to the kindness of strangers.

So her family created a GoFundMe and raised $15-thousand for the dog that will help Jerrica live every moment she has to the fullest. Source: WCPO
