PAWS for thought! Pets as Therapy, Touching the Hearts of our Residents.
21 February 2017
Our new PAT dog, Digby came bounding into our Residents lives, a beautiful brown Labrador full of character and boundless energy, yet remaining calm throughout his introductory visit. Many of our Residents began to engage almost immediately, Residents were invited to stroke Digby, interacting with him, in whatever way they felt most comfortable. Not all of our Residents wanted to handle Digby, some Residents benefited just from watching a happy dog interact with others. We look forward to our next visit from this wonderful interactive experience.
