Puppy Tea Party

SWEET-TOOTHED puppy lovers are invited to share in a temptingly tasty afternoon tea event – where four-legged future life-changers are the guests of honour. Sheffield-based Support Dogs is hosting a Puppy Tea Party at the city’s stunning Mercure Kenwood Hall and Spa, where guests can meet some of the charity’s youngest recruits – Labradors Rufus, Garry, Rowley and Nix.

They will also get to hear about each of the puppies and the work of the charity, which trains and provides assistance dogs to help autistic children, as well as adults with epilepsy or a physical disability, to live safer, more independent lives. Danny Anderson, Support Dogs’ head of fundraising, said: “Who doesn’t love puppies, and who doesn’t love cake?

It’s going to be such a lovely event, in a beautiful setting, where you can enjoy cuddles with our puppies and tuck into some yummy food while finding out about the life-changing and life-saving work they will go on to do.” Volunteer puppy socialisers and members of the charity’s Puppy Team will also be on hand to share information about their important role in helping the charity to nurture the pups into superhero assistance dogs.
