Service Pit Bull Accepting Diploma For Deceased Student Brings Tears To Everyone’s Eyes

Idaho State University student Josh Kelly had epilepsy and during his years on campus, his service dog Cletus was always by his side. The Pit Bull was specially trained to help Josh with his epileptic seizures and many times he alerted people when Josh’s life was in danger.

Sadly, Josh passed away from complications with the medical condition just before his graduation. So it was a fitting tribute and an emotional moment for Josh’s family when, on the day of Josh’s graduation ceremony, Cletus walked across the stage to accept the diploma on his behalf.
