Guest Video: Magnus the Therapy Dog


What good is AI? — this, after scouring YouTube for reliable videos on dogs for seniors.

There are lots of “best breeds for seniors” videos, but I saw none that seemed to be factual and focused, like yesterday’s video on cats.

Some even seemed AI enhanced, which led to the anguished question above — and then I found this channel.

The lead video was about German Shepards, with the same hosts, but since mutts make good therapy dogs, too, I went with Magnus:

AI can be very, very good!

More information:

  • Wikipedia on therapy dogs (be sure to check the External Links!)
  • Quora: Is it okay to adopt a puppy for a 70-year-old woman?
  • Seniors for Seniors is just one of the results that came up in a search for “mutts and seniors.” (Note: There are also expert posts out there, for example, from the American Kennel Club, for good dog breeds for seniors.)
