和大多数高校一样，美国弗吉尼亚理工大学兽医学院今年也举行了“云毕业典礼”。
而在今年的毕业生中，还有一位特别的小伙伴：一条名叫穆斯的8岁拉布拉多寻回犬，获得了兽医专业荣誉博士学位。

图源：北京时间视频Like most universities, Virginia Tech's College of Veterinary Medicine celebrated the class of 2020 with an online commencement ceremony. But unlike other schools, they included one very good boy in the graduating class: a dog named Moose.
The Labrador retriever, an 8-year-old therapy dog at the Cook Counseling Center, received an honorary doctorate in veterinary medicine.
Moose, who has been with Virginia Tech since 2014, is one of the school's four therapy animals and ambassadors for mental health awareness.
据CNN报道，穆斯从2014年开始“就职”于弗吉尼亚理工大学库克咨询中心，是该校4只治疗动物和促进心理健康大使之一。

The fluffy pup has helped thousands of students and assisted in more than 7,500 counseling sessions, according to his owner, licensed counselor Trent Davis.
戴维斯表示，学生们认为穆斯能够接纳自己，不会担心穆斯会对自己有所评判。(These students see Moose as someone who's going to accept them. They don't worry about him judging them.)
图源：CNN戴维斯还说，他常常碰到想要摸摸穆斯的路人，他们都会蹲在地上，用哄宝宝的语气和穆斯说话。他觉得这就是治疗犬的用处所在。
“I have never met you before and now you're sitting one foot away from me petting the dog and talking to me about the meaning of life.”
“我们俩素未谋面，但如今你却坐在仅离我一英尺远的地方抚摸狗狗，和我聊起人生的意义。”
图源：北京时间视频CNN报道称，虽然这个新学位对于穆斯博士而言用处不大，但它会获得一些奖励，比如去海边游泳，或者好好玩一场拔河游戏~
围观网友纷纷表示对穆斯实名羡慕了（笑）~
