meet our ambassadog

As part of National Dog Week, we staged The Paw Walk, a virtual walk where you could fundraise and enter our Ambassadog competition.

It's proving to be a popular event, with over 130 potential Ambassadogs signing up, proudly wearing our yellow Beatson Bandanas. In total it raised £14,000.

Here’s Milo, who was crowned Ambassadog 2021/22 and helped us throughout the year at various events including the virtual Santa Dash, Off the Beatson Track and sharing our work at The Dog Lover Show at the SEC Glasgow.

Milo was nominated by his owner, Erin Phairs from Irvine, who was treated for cancer 15 years ago. Two years after her cancer treatment finished, Erin developed PTSD following her diagnosis. Erin’s mum got Milo for her to try and help her through the difficult times she was facing. Milo is now her best friend and goes everywhere with her.
