Pooches on parade at Arcare homes
Arcare Aged Care homes across NSW, Queensland and Victoria have celebrated National Take Your Dog to Work Day, with staff members bringing their canine companions to meet the residents.
Arcare Noosa held a Pet Parade (pictured), with 15 pooches walking the runway to the delight of residents; Residence Manager Laura-Jo, who brought her own dog Harry in for the event, said it was a great day for all involved.
“It was such a wonderful turnout of residents, some choosing to even watch from their balconies with a cup of tea.
Dogs of all shapes and sizes dropped in on Arcare homes – retrievers, poodles, dachshunds, even robots. According to Arcare Pimpama Residence Manager Vicki, the animals weren’t just good for a cuddly break.
