Accompany Millie the golden labrador on her hospital rounds, as she spreads joy and warmth to staff and patients alike at Petersfield Hospital on this month's episode of Dogs with Jobs. 

It's a deceptively simple episode - the gentle sound of a dog padding around the hospital on an ordinary Thursday morning. Yet there's a magic here when the dog loving patients encounter Millie, and talk about how much they look forward to getting back home to their own much loved canine companions. 

Former rescue dog Millie is a Pets as Therapy (PAT) dog and Petersfield is just one of her regular stops. Owner Linda Tipple explains the rhythms of Millie's part time working life and its rewards.

If you are interested in volunteering with your dog, please take a listen to the January 2021 interview with Patricia Bland of Pets as Therapy, who explains the qualities she looks for in a therapy dog. See the photos as usual at shineradio.uk/dogswithjobs.

In this episode you can also hear the winning submission of Dogs with Jobs, which won Gold at the Community Radio Awards 2022 in Bedford in November.
