We were recently lucky enough to have a visit from Pets As Therapy dog, Billy, and her handler Judith.

Billy is a two year old Schnoodle (Schnauzer crossed with a Poodle) and she joined us on her first ever day working as a therapy dog! Everyone was so impressed with her calm temperament and her visit really lifted the spirits!
