Work has begun on a unique project at Crumlin's Children's Hospital in Dublin that will see patients able to receive visits from their pet. The Cian's Kennels initiative will see a €100,000 facility with specially designed kennels built on-site at the back of St John’s Ward so children can visit with their pets. 
Our reporter Barry Whyte has been meeting the family behind the initiative.
