Paw of the Pride is inspired by the amazing therapy dogs who visit Sheffield Children’s!
Artist Liah Edwardes runs dog life-drawing classes for staff and patients, and has seen how these calm, happy pups bring countless smiles and warmth to the wards they visit and the children they spend time with.
Liah’s design is a heartfelt thank you to the dogs who make such a big difference, including Quita, Nellie, Keegan and Sparkle – all of whom you can find on this sculpture!
