Every Friday, Petie makes his rounds--all three feet, 400 pounds of him. When there's a horse on the floor, word spreads quickly. And Petie just seems to know when he's needed. He'll walk right up to a child, put his muzzle on the bed or nuzzle his leg, and he’ll stay close as long as the child will let him. Each kid gets a photo, so he can prove it, and a miniature stuffed Petie.
