The 'Dog-tor' Will See You Now!
The serviced apartment team at Ngaio Marsh Retirement Village has recently had some paw-some new team members join the cohort, including a dog named Bella Rose.
Senior caregiver Glenys Stewart, Bella’s owner, has been bringing Bella in regularly over the last couple of months. The residents of Ryman Healthcare's Papanui village have got to watch Bella’s little family grow with the recent arrival of two new puppies.
“(I’ve been bringing Bella in) pretty much since she was about 8 weeks old," says Glenys.
"I tried to bring her in a wee bit just to socialise her but also for the residents to see her when she's a baby because they love them when they're puppies. Absolutely adore them.”
Bella, who is an 18-month-old Shih Tzu, had her puppies about two weeks ago. The father, Tanner is a Shih Tzu/Maltese cross and together they’ve made the cutest tri-coloured puppies. Bella’s visits and the arrival of the puppies has added some real joy and interest for the village residents.
