The K9 Project is a unique organization that works with rescue dogs who now act as therapy dogs. Heart-warming and educational Hounds Who Heal tells the story of human/canine companionship as isolated adults and children learn to believe in themselves and make the often-elusive connection to a friend.

Telling the story of each of the dogs, and many of the people they helped along the way, you’ll also learn from the people whose lives have been transformed. Chris Kent, founder of this unique project, has her story told as well; you'll love her tale of laughter, frustration, joy, and tears of the Project’s eight-year journey.
