Toffee & Dixie’s Very Chewy Christmas Q&A
At ellenor, two very special visitors pad in with wagging tails and happy paws. 🐾 Toffee and Dixie, our Pet Therapy dogs, bring cuddles, comfort and plenty of festive cheer to patients, staff and volunteers.
This Christmas they’ve taken a break from biscuit inspecting to answer your festive questions… with a paw-sitive twist!
