Happy The Dog also has an adopted feline brother, Happy The Cat, who spent two years in a shelter in Ohio before being rescued by Hallmark Channel and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries President & CEO, Bill Abbott. Happy The Dog is now a therapy dog and makes children smile in his visits to Ronald McDonald House Los Angeles. Happy The Dog and Happy The Cat star in Happy Yule Log every Thanksgiving and Christmas as a way of showing the joys pets bring to our lives every day. The Happy pets are the heartbeat of Hallmark TV's pet philanthropy to provide a loving fur-ever home to all shelter pets...until all of the cages are empty.
