Gerald Anderson's foundation to train therapy dogs

MANILA -- Actor Gerald Anderson on Wednesday shared that his own foundation, which aims to save lives by training dogs for search and rescue operations, has branched out to training therapy dogs as well.

In an interview on "Umagang Kay Ganda," the actor announced that the Gerald Anderson Foundation Inc., which was launched last March, has a new The Angel Dog Program.

"Lumaki na po yung foundation," he said. "We are training dogs ng basic obedience, tricks, tapos dadalhin namin sa hospital para bisitahin ang mga bata, mga cancer patient."

Anderson created the foundation after his experience during typhoon Ondoy in 2009, when he braved the floods to save people in need.
