Working with UNC athletic trainer Terri Jo Rucinski, Remington provided joy to athletes rehabbing injuries inside school facilities, visited patients in hospitals and nursing homes and visited local schools to read with children. He could often be found around the Boshamer Stadium dugout with the Diamond Heels.
Remington originally came to UNC in 2015 through a partnership with the organization paws4people, which provides therapy dogs to those in need. Rucinski applied for an assistance dog to visit the UNC Children’s Hospital, and “the rest is history,” she wrote.
“Remington is an inspiration and brings joy to all that meet him,” Rucsinski said. “Injuries can be difficult to deal with and Remington seems to be a source of motivation and can enhance a person’s mood. It is often heard from patients and athletes leaving the facilities that this ‘has been the best day ever in rehab thanks to Remington.’”
