Meet Giles

Sonya J. Miller-Smith

Giles is the practice's newest friend. He is a young dog currently being trained by the 'Dogs for the Disabled' charity. The practice has committed to sponsoring Giles through his long training and hope to raise as much as possible to support him and his fellow students other the coming few years.

'Dogs for the Disabled' are a registered charity that produces unique partnerships between dogs and disabled people. The dogs become helper-dogs, similar to guide-dogs for the blind, or hearing-dogs for the deaf, but where the focus is more on doing physical tasks that a disabled person would find difficult. This may include running for the phone, posting a letter or even emptying the washing machine!

We are eager to involve everyone we can in supporting our cause, so throughout the coming year look out for our various fund-raising events, such as a sponsored dog walk and open day.
