Feeling Paw-sitively Cheery at Our Happy Holidogs Event

View All News

How do you boost everyone’s spirits during the holiday season? By bringing some of the cutest dogs you’ve ever seen to campus, of course! That’s why the TUH-Main Campus Office of Patient Experience hosted its annual Happy Holidogs event on Friday, December 13th. 

This year, we welcomed local rescue partners Philly Bully Team, Street Tails Animal Rescue, Philly Rescue Angels, the Pennsylvania SPCA, and Morris Animal Refuge, as well as vendors Melmo’s Dog Treats and Bully Bows. Our team members couldn’t have been more excited to bond with the dogs, and at least one furry friend found a new forever home!

Check out the photos from the event, and see our Temple Health employees getting in the ‘holidogs’ spirit!
