I think it's brilliant. Not sure about theatres, but in general dogs are great. And golden retrievers are the best of the lot. We've had six and they'd all have been brilliant therapets.

I had some big needles in my knees this week. A big daft lump of a dog would have taken my mind off the pain.

Having been a regular to my NHS establishments over the years I wouldn't want a dog coming near me. Can't stand them. Next they will be letting them into restaurants

Smaller nurses uniforms might be a cheaper, more hygienic alternative.

Seems a bit off given how many people get mrsa when they go INTO hospital and now they think animals who lick the own arses, flanges and gentlemen's bits will add no additional risk to hygiene or germs. You live and learn

When the NHS has been run into the ground, we'll probably have to go to a vet anyway.
