“What is the most treasured
element of home we can bring
to the in-patient experience?”
came the answer - a live-in,
collective family pet.
Imagine the unique challenge hospice
workers face of enriching the quality of life of
those whose lives are nearing their end. Next,
imagine an animal rescue whose goals include
not just saving dogs’ lives, but empowering them
to thrive as contributing members of society. And
now, imagine a creative partnership between two
innovative organizations to fulfill and evolve their
respective missions. From this vision, a very
special dog will be trained as a resident therapy
dog for Hoffmann’s state of the art hospice house
opening in the summer of 2015.
Hoffmann’s new facility will be a breed apart, not
only in that its infrastructure will emulate that of a
house versus a hospital, but within its walls will
reside the spirit of home, allowing patients and
their families the opportunity to live, love, and let
While Hoffmann provides
fundamental pain management and medical treatment, their bigger goal is
to enrich the time patients have left, helping
them to exist in the moment and fully experience
the right of passage at hand. Studies prove that
in hospital settings therapy dogs effectively
decrease blood pressure, lower heart rate, offer
distraction from pain and anxiety, diminish
depressive symptoms, and increase production
of feel-good chemicals like oxytocin, dopamine
and serotonin. Having a dog around will not only
impact patients and families, but staff and
volunteers as well, who deal with the heavy
weight of loss on a daily basis.
To fulfill this vision, Hoffmann Hospice has
teamed with Marley’s Mutts Dog Rescue.
Marley’s Mutts pulls dogs from high-kill shelters
then rehabilitates and re-homes them. Via their
“Miracle Mutts” outreach program, Marley’s
Mutts gives rescue dogs the opportunity to pay
forward the gift of healing they’ve received by
educating and inspiring their community.
“Expanding our ‘Miracle Mutts’ program into a
hospice setting comes at the perfect time in our
evolution as an organization,” says the program’s
director, Liz Kover. “Enabling this precious dog
to fulfill her higher purpose as a
healer will take our work as a
rescue to a whole new level.”
Kover, who holds degrees in
Assistance Dog Education and
Canine Life Sciences from Bergin
University of Canine Studies and is
the Animal-Assisted Activities
Director for Marely’s Mutts Dog
Rescue, will train the dog. She
envisions Hoffmann’s resident
“miracle mutt” being well trained in basic and
advanced obedience and continuing on her
track to earn Certified Therapy Dog status.
After a weeks-long campaign in which the public
weighed in on social media, the chosen dog was
announced on April 1st. It was 4:30 AM when
Brian Jackson, on his routine commute through
the dark, barren Mojave landscape, noticed two
big, furry ears attached to a very small
four-legged figure in his headlights. Amazingly,
the dog ran to him without trepidation, as if she
had been waiting for him. This gentle,
twenty-pound, three-year-old Papillon-Sheltie-mix was given the name “Maggie.” “Her
almost-magical spirit suggests she may have
fallen from Heaven right into our laps, specifically to fulfill this divine purpose,” said Kover.

along as Hoffmann’s new house becomes a
once-homeless little mutt’s forever home.

The “Walk of Hope” is a

These pavers will leave a lasting tribute in

this beautiful pathway for years to come.
Hoffmann Hospice is thrilled to have Maggie lead the Hoffmann Hounds Pet
Therapy Program currently offered through the Hoffmann Volunteer
department. Maggie and the Hoffmann Hounds will serve patients of both
Hoffmann Hospice and the Hospice Home. There is a continuous need for
certified Pet Therapy dogs to care for hospice patients; applications to
