There was a great birthday celebration at one high school on Chicago's Northwest Side on Wednesday. But the cake probably tasted like beef and salmon.
You’ve heard the old saying a dog is a "man’s best friend." Well, there’s evidence that aSay "happy birthday" to Patrick, the top dog at St. Patrick High School in the Belmont Cragin neighborhood.
For the past three years, Patrick the Goldendoodle has been running around the hallways and classrooms of St. Patrick every Wednesday on the Northwest Side. While Patrick is technically a therapy dog, he's more like a buddy to the more than 500 students. "They’re dragging their feet, their heads messed, like this is horrible. And as soon as they see Patrick, it’s 'Pat’s here it’s Wednesday!' You hear the kids go 'This is Wednesday it’s my favorite day at St. Pat's because Patrick is here.' It changes everything," Moroko said.
