A New York boy is celebrating Valentine's Day with a new heart this year. And his doctors say a dog named Ralph really does some help. 

Eight-year-old Pablo Patino was born with heart disease, and by last autumn, he was in terrible danger.

"There were times he was so sick he may not survive, so it's amazing," Dr. Irene Lytrivi said.

Think doctors are the only ones who can help people through illness and pain? Think again.

Pablo received a heart transplant in November. But after surgery, doctors say he needed something more than just modern medicine. That's when Ralph stepped in. The dog helped distract Pablo from the pain and encouraged him to get up and move.

"He made me feel better, he made me do some exercise and walking," Pablo said. 

Pablo's family believed Ralph helped get their little boy back on his feet.
