Meet Buddy, the PAT (Pets As Therapy) dog
Sometimes when you’re in hospital you just need a buddy. Meet Buddy, the PAT (Pets As Therapy) dog who’s set to become a regular at Hillingdon Hospital.
Along with his owners, local couple Harpal and Harpreet Tamber, this very pattable pooch will be on site every Wednesday between about 12 noon and 2pm. He’ll be ‘pawsing’ near Bevan’s coffee shop on alternate weeks and touring wards and departments during other visits.
Buddy is fine to visit most clinical areas and comes under the same rules as a guide dog. He'll be following all infection prevention and control rules.
