Last month, Prince stole the show as the winner of our Super Pet Halftime Show Contest! 🎉 We then discovered that he’s also a therapy dog with one of AMC’s valued partners, The Good Dog Foundation! As a part of Prince's volunteer duties, he regularly visits a children’s hospital where he helps ease patient anxiety before surgery, comforts kids in recovery, and brightens the days of families and staff. His gentle presence is a reminder that hope and healing come in many forms, including a wagging tail! 🐶💛 Want to make a difference with your dog?
