Happy International Dog Day! 🐾🐶

At Cera, we know that pets are so much more than just animals- they really are part of the family. Whether it’s a wagging tail welcoming our care staff at the door, or a comforting cuddle on the sofa with a service user, our four-legged friends have an incredible power to lift spirits and improve quality of life ❤️

In celebration of our favourite canine companions, we’re looking back at the incredible impact animals have on our health, happiness, and wellbeing.
