Puppy love thrives at resthome

Andrew Gibson doesn't talk much but he sure lets Diana Sheehan know when he wants to see her dogs Kerri and Tarryn.

He signals for the dogs to come to him and when they are taken away he will stamp his foot and signal for them to come back.

Ms Sheehan and her dogs are part of the Outreach Therapy Pets, a joint initiative of St John and SPCA Auckland in which volunteers and their pets visit resthomes and hospitals to bring comfort to residents and patients. MORE>>
