We are pleased to announce the winner of this years Pets As Therapy Dog of the Year 2007 was Bryn.

Bryn visits the Centre for Oncology at Clatterbridge Hospital twice a week to give comfort and pleasure to patients. One of Bryns nominees said “Bryn’s work is invaluable … I believe he has saved many lives by giving patients back that bit of normality they have been forced to leave behind while undergoing very frightening treatments.”

Bryn not only helps the patients; he is a great help to their families. In a further nomination the daughter of a patient said...“I was often close to tears after I had to leave the room while my mother was being ‘zapped’. Bryn and Sue were just outside the treatment area on a number of occasions as I came out. To be able to bury my head in Bryn’s soft fur and give him a cuddle helped me through those terrible times. Bryn was there at just the right moments to work some of his Pets As Therapy magic for which I will be eternally grateful"

A big well done to Bryn and our other finalists, all of whom do an outstanding job.
