Celebration of Second Chances

An Unfurgettable Start to #WellnessWeek2025

We kicked off #WellnessWeek2025 at Bruce’s in the most meaningful way, by hosting an unfurgettable reunion for a group of truly remarkable dogs who once roamed the streets of Thailand, forgotten and in pain.

Thanks to the inspiring work of Niall Harbison and the team at Happy Doggo, these pups are now enjoying safe, loving lives in the UK. And we were honoured to welcome them to our Country Hills centre for a very special centre event.

A Deeply Emotional Reunion

An unbreakable bond forged through kindness, trust, and compassion

Even after years apart, the moment these incredible dogs laid eyes on Niall again, it was as if no time had passed at all. Tails wagged furiously, ears perked up, and joyful barks filled the air. Each pup instantly recognising the man who had once knelt beside them on the streets of Thailand and offered them hope.

The connection between them and Niall was undeniable, radiating pure love that no words could fully capture. Not even the rumble of intermittent thunderstorms could dampen the heartwarming scenes unfolding at our Country Hills centre.

Bruce’s Dog Moritz Led The Way

An inspirational journey

Leading the way was none other than Moritz, one of our very own beloved Bruce’s dogs. Since joining our doggy community, Moritz has blossomed in confidence, growing braver, more curious, and with each day. His journey has been nothing short of inspiring, and on this special day, he truly stepped into the spotlight.

With his tail held high and a spring in his step, Moritz proudly played host, showing his old friends around the Country Hills centre like a seasoned tour guide. Whether it was guiding newcomers to their favourite play zones or offering a reassuring nuzzle to any pup feeling a bit unsure, Moritz set the tone for the reunion with warmth, enthusiasm, and just the right amount of playful charm. His presence reminded us all of the beauty of progress and helped create the perfect atmosphere for a pawfect, joy-filled gathering.

Reconnecting Through Play

Letting dogs be dogs

The secure, open fields of Bruce’s Country Hills offered more than just space — they provided freedom, safety, and the rare kind of joy that comes from watching dogs truly be themselves. As the reunion unfolded, the fields buzzed with energy and excitement. Dogs raced through the grass with tails wagging. They chased each other, rolled around and shared playful moments that spoke volumes — as if picking up right where they’d left off.

For many of them, this was the first time in years they’d seen familiar faces from their journey, and the setting allowed them to reconnect not just with each other, but with the carefree spirit that every dog deserves to experience.

We were incredibly proud to witness and support such a beautiful, emotional gathering. It was a poignant reminder of why we do what we do, to create spaces where every dog feels safe, seen, and loved. Because at Bruce’s doggy day care, it always comes back to one simple truth: we do it for the love of dogs.
