Digger, an Australian Cattle Dog
Four-year-old Digger graduated last Sunday and is now officially a Saint John Ambulance Therapy Dog.
Since 1992, four-legged Saint John Ambulance volunteers have visited hospitals, retirement residences, and long-term and short-term care facilities across Canada to improve the quality of life for patients - reducing stress, lowering blood pressure, distracting the pain ridden.
Congratulations, Digger!
I am linking with Saturday Critters HERE.

Surely a job for a special dog! Congrats to Digger! Thank you for sharing and linking up your critters, have a happy weekend!
LOVE these wonderful animals!! He must be a very special animal.
Dogs (more often their owners) often get a bad press so it's good to remind everyone the vary positive things they provide. Digger is a great name for an Australian dog!
He is a fantastic dog, helping those who can't. Beautiful image.
He is a handsome fellow!
Congrats. He has noble jobs.

Congratulations Digger pat pat hug hug. B
Go Digger! We had, at one time, thought to have our Golden trained as a therapy dog, but never got around to it and now she's gone. These therapy dogs are wonderful critters and help so many people. Love Digger's eye patch!
They do important work. Yes, you go Digger!
Je connais ces thérapie animalières qui se pratiquent aussi en France, avec de très bons résultats. Saluons les personnes et les animaux engagés dans cette œuvre à côté humanitaire.
J'ai connu votre blog à partir de chez mon ami Bob Bushell et je ne suis pas déçu, les photos sont excellentes.
Amitiés.

Digger has great eyes and will be welcomed by so many people. Congratulations to Digger and his trainers.
Digger is great dog, therapy dogs are fascinating well educated.
Good for Digger! A therapy dog is a great idea. For someone who is ill or stressed or depressed, I can't think of a better, more loving companion.
Congratulations, Digger. You have a rewarding life in front of you.
Sweet dog and congrats!
What a sweet face. He is going to be perfect for the job.

Rather a piratical looking pooch with his eyepatch and neckerchief but I know from experience that these dogs do a great job.

HI Wonderful critter post. Well done Digger.

Congrats Digger!
Good Jog, Digger. My friend and neighbor trains dogs for the St. Francis Foundation. She trains two at a time. How she does it, I do not know. It is so time consuming.
