Aberdeen Airport Therapy Dogs Alleviate Stress

In the bustling Aberdeen International Airport, anxiety and confusion cannot be avoided. Luckily, 3 therapy dogs are on duty. The Canine Crew, composed of Noodle the Beagle, Breagh the Golden Retriever, and Grace the Scottish Deerhound are part of the airport’s “therapets”. Canine Concern Scotland introduced the idea of using therapy dogs for passengers who are flight-anxious.

A passenger's mood brightens when they see the dogs. The therapet’s presence lowers blood pressure and can even provide assistance for those who require emotional support. “People are now saying they want to fly from Aberdeen because it’s the only airport in the UK to do this. The only danger is that people miss their flights because they are so well distracted by the dogs.” Said Fraser Bain, the airport’s duty manager.
