    Hi Keith
    She is gorgeous, like you say better then painkillers....I really miss my little dog...but I wouldnt be able to take another for its walkies.
    They once did a program on taking pets to hospital and old people's homes, when they where stroking the animals there blood pressure came down, and they got a feeling of well-being... :grin:

    I work in a hospital. Sometimes you see a therapet dog visiting, she completely brightens people's day. I can't imagine life without a furry companion.

    Barbara, my dog Maddie was a pets as therapy dog we used to go to nursing homes to visit the poeple used to love talking to her and stroking her it really brightend up their day.
    Unfortunately we have had to give up now as Maddie has had cruciate ligament problems and i can lift her anymore. but we did really enough it.

    Oh Tracey gad Maddie was one of those cus they do such a good job eh>

    Mind....

    They idea of 2 of mine being therapy dogs.. well...

    In a hospital Ward they would start each to a side and race leaping on every bed to See who would get to the end first.... :lol::lol:

    Ina nursing or care home they would just leap at people left right and center... Steal any available food and generally be loons :lol: do you think they would be accepted? Cris xx
