The Royalist - Camilla Visits Animal Hospital

Camilla Visits Animal Hospital

The Duchess of Cornwall visited the Animal Welfare College in Hatfield in her capacity as Patron of The Animal Care Trust.

Camilla, who was appearing on what is an increasing number of solo engagements, is owner of three Jack Russell terriers and so she was delighted to see how well a dog called Frodo was recovering after spinal surgery at the College: "He looks a very happy person now. It is so wonderful to see the end result. He is obviously very used to being a bit of star."

The Duchess was at the College to give her high profile support to the 'Paws For A Cause' appeal which hopes to raise £5 million to finance the building of several operating theatres and consulting rooms.

Camilla's next public engagement will be on Monday when she'll join Prince Charles at the opening of a sports centre at Westonbirt School in Gloucestershire.
