Meet Chloe Pioneer House's Resident Pooch

Chloe, our dog is an integral part of our facility, and she provides much joy to nearly everyone with whom she comes in contact. Chloe, a shitsu cross who has been part of our facility since she was a baby, with her mum bringing her to work since she was 8 weeks old.

She engages with everyone, and it is not uncommon to find her on the lap of a resident, with both fast asleep.

She seems to know when it is OK to be boisterous and when she needs to be quiet and gentle. She has been a wonderful addition to our family, thanks to Rhonda, our Recreational Activity Officer, who is her Mum.

Chloe does have some little habits that find us with toilet brushes in the foyer, but many residents have toys in their rooms to distract her from this slightly unsavoury behaviour.

All in all she is a great joy to all of us.
