Thank you for your feedback. An op-shop means: an opportunity shop or a Secondhand store or a Pre-loved store. It sells items previously owned by someone else.
Hi Annette, I am afraid only the facility where you intend to take the dog will be able to help you. It is up to management to allow a pet in the facility. Where I work we have two small dogs. There are 'duty statement' involving staff in their upkeep:
who feeds the dogs
who takes the dogs outside for toilet breaks,
who grooms the dogs
who bathes the dogs
who is in charge of taking dogs to the Vet (when needed) and
who cleans up the mess if the dogs have accidents inside facility etc.
These sort of duties have to be sorted out before the dog is brought to the facility. Good luck! Believe me it is worth it, our residents love our pets: Panamax and Aspro.

Yes...we need to be mindful of what it feels like to suffer from dementia. I have added a print version to all blog posts now - you will find the link under the blog title. This will enable you to print just the blog content and not the whole website!
Thank you Golden carers for all the great ideas. My residents really enjoy the quizzes and some of the craft activities. They especially want "This day in history". I try to make it a morning ritual after the newspaper reading. This month there are so many great ideas for St Patrick's day, many I have printed off to use. I take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy St Patrick's day. Here is my beautiful cat, she is much more photogenic than me!
