Bramble Spreads Smiles

Bramble, our visiting therapy dog, made a joyful entrance at Abbey View this morning, bounding through the doors and bringing smiles all around.

Resident Muriel was particularly delighted when Bramble ran straight to her and curled up on her lap. Known for her intuitive nature, Bramble seems to know exactly which residents need a furry hug — and who might need a little space!

After the cuddle, Muriel admitted, “My husband was the one who loved dogs. I didn’t like dogs!” But she couldn’t help but call Bramble “rather cute.” It’s clear why therapy dogs like Bramble are so valued — they bring comfort, companionship, and joy wherever they go.
