This is the heart-warming reaction of care home residents as they enjoyed a visit from an adorable group of Pomeranian and British bulldogs.

The adorable video shows the residents of Romford Grange Care cooing, stroking at the tiny dogs, and having their noses licked in return.

The visit was organized last month by Larry Cooley (owner of The Bully Ranch) as part of The Bully Ranch to You project. The project is a personal one for 34-year-old Larry who organized the trip to raise the spirits of the residents at the care home.

He stated, “Having been raised in London’s East End by my grandad and nan, I have always shown respect for elderly people, helping to carry bags and making a contribution whenever I can.”

“Puppies and dogs have amazing benefits such as lowering anxiety, helping with depression, stress, conquering loneliness and even reducing physical pain.”

Conquering loneliness was a big factor in their going after the effect the pandemic had on the elderly.

He added, “From the moment we entered the care home there were smiles all round from staff and residents. The atmosphere was really pleasant, I have to say.

“It was difficult not to notice how the elderly were affected by the pandemic. There were no family visits and very little support from friends.”

“The residents of the care home have had a difficult two-years. On Wednesday, we told them that they would be coming to see us. They were excited and continued asking for our help .”
