Puppies behind bars

A program aimed at getting dogs trained by inmates to PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) war veterans, so they can better cope with their disorder. I remember first listening to a NPR Fresh Air podcast about it over the summer (you can hear it here), and I was reminded of it by an article that just came out in the NYTimes, here. The audio slide show is definitely worth watching, especially for the picture of the puppy with the dish in its mouth.
