ORLANDO - Folks from all walks of life have come together in the days following the Pulse nightclub shootings. Even those on four feet.

Lutheran Church Charities' K-9 Comfort Dogs have arrived to help those mourning lost loved ones and praying for others to recover.

LCC is based in Northbrook, Ill. and has a number of efforts underway to assist in Orlando.  Here's a look at their Comfort Dogs in action.
