2023 OZ Top Dog with a Job Winner - 2nd Place

Dr Sam

Breed:  Shetland Sheepdog

Barking from:  Sydney, NSW

What's up dog?

Dr Sam is an hospital dog. Sam is a burst of sunshine when he comes onto the wards. He goes straight to the doctors & nurses station, gives them cuddles & air kisses & we then check our list of patients to visit. The children adore him, he is up in the cots & beds, he snuggles in with the very sick ones, he plays games with the more active ones & his most noticeable effect of happiness and comfort is with the very long stay patients. Sometimes he is cheeky & playful but the ones needing mental health support hold him close, very often cry into his furry neck or run their hands through his long fur. He stays for long visits with these ones until the tears stop.
