All of my Welsh terriers have visited my patients at some time or another.
They possess a stillness about them when around people who are poorly or distressed that is interesting to compare to the rambunctiousness shown by the bulldogs who greet everyone as though they are the centre of everyone ‘s world.
Today I went into work for fire training and I took the girls with me.
Dorothy had to be left watching at the patient’s door , but Mary, as requested sat patiently in an arm chair next to the hospital bed and watched the patient carefully.
Moments later, and with permission she jumped lightly onto the bed and carefully lay down between the patient’s legs, her head resting on a tummy, and there she lay her big brown eyes watching the frail rise and fall of a chest underneath the patchwork quilt.
I couldn’t of been more proud of Mary as I was watching her lying quietly with that patient this morning.
