What a fantastic idea! The homeless are very vulnerable, usually have tons of problems of one kind or another, and yes, dogs are often not allowed in buildings where these people need to go, including many night shelters.
Knowing your dog is just outside, being cared for, must be a great relief for those people.
The homeless feel forgotten and sidelined. There is prejudice against them. Sometimes it is because they have drug addiction problems but even if it is, a little care and kindness towards their companions goes a long way to restoring their hope.
It would be nice if such a good idea was adopted in the UK too!
