About Eri

Eri is a curious and energetic two-year-old cavoodle. She loves outdoor adventures, sniffing out yummy treats, and teleporting next to the fridge whenever a packet of cheese is opened.

You might see Eri pop in to say “hi”, or lounge in her favourite armchair during your appointments. Rest assured, Eri is committed to her role as a furry confidant at Willoway.
