1: INTRODUCTION
Project Breif:
Feeling O’ Canine is a community centre, located
at Clarence Esplanade in Portsmouth, that aims
to actively promote social interaction with other
people as well as with dogs, to tackle physical
and psychological wellbeing. It will simultaneously
assist the well-being of dogs themselves in way of
the depression and separation anxiety recognised
in dogs due to changes in routine, being left alone
too often, loss/grief or previous abuse.
