Meet Enzo

Ellie adores Enzo for all of his quirks and his hilarious personality

Enzo is a very chilled dog. Every time he sits down, he likes to cross his paws, which I think makes him look very posh! And, instead of blinking normally, he winks at us instead. He just sits there with his paws crossed, winking at us – it’s hilarious! He also loves his bow tie, which we bought because we felt like it suited his funny personality.

He also loves his bow tie


Meet Shandy

Shandy may be a rescue dog, but she’s saved her owner Paula in so many ways

I rescued Shandy from Spain. She was a street dog, and some ex-pats in the village found her and took her to the local rescue centre. When I heard her story, I knew she deserved a safe and loving home with us.

Our dog has completed our family

She has long legs and almost trots when running. She won't eat her food unless I say it's OK and she’s so gentle with our other tiny rescue dog, it makes my heart sing to watch them play and have fun!

Shandy has boosted my mental health. I was feeling pretty low after losing my job, but the long walks we take together have been so good for both of us. Our dog has completed our family and watching her grow more confident every day has been a joy for us all.


Meet Geezer

Despite everything life’s thrown at him, Louise’s dog Geezer always finds a way to stay optimistic

Geezer came into our lives last September. We found him at our local RSPCA centre and instantly fell in love with his infectious zest for life. He may only have three legs, but this doesn’t stop him from doing all the things he enjoys, usually at full speed!

His infectious zest for life

Our dog has taught us no matter how tough life can be, there is always a brighter day coming. He may stumble sometimes but he always gets backup, with a smile on his face and a wagging tail.

Meet Daisy

Daisy brightens owner Serena’s days with an enthusiasm for life that belies her years

My Daisy! She is my absolute everything. Daisy is at the grand old age of 12 years, she is a Lhasa Apso and is quite possibly the funniest character you’ll meet. She helped me through a very rough part of my life which makes her an incredible pup.

I was experiencing over six years of struggling with infertility, Daisy has been there through it all with me and my highs and lows in life. She can calm my thoughts, make me feel I have purpose, love unconditionally and just know when to snuggle. She has a huge personality and is everybody’s friend, dog or human!

Quite possibly the funniest character you’ll meet

As she’s older, one of my favourite characteristics is how she still gets the zoomies when she is excited. She will dart around everywhere bouncing off the walls twisting and turning not even knowing her own speed. She is also the boss! Whenever she has played with others she has been the one who seems more dominant. Even if she’s faced with a Great Dane she thinks she’s a tiger, however she always wins over your heart. Daisy is the most loyal pup I have ever encountered and I hope I have very many more years to enjoy her love.


Meet Twig

Twig never leaves Lotte’s side and has even helped her reconnect with her nan, who’s suffering from the debilitating effects of dementia

Last year, my nan’s dementia got a lot worse, and I felt like I had lost her behind the fog and confusion of the disease. She no longer remembered my name, she was scared and erratic and it was impossible to have a conversation with her.

Then I took Twig to see her. My nan’s face lit up as Twig bounded towards her, she opened her arms and yelled ‘TWIG!’ She remembered her! We could talk about Twig and stroke her together and it calmed and grounded my nan. Twig was like a portal, bringing a little fragment of my nan back to me.

Twig is the kindest and most warm-hearted dog I have ever met

Twig has been my rock, best friend and soulmate since I collected her from a little farm in Wales two years ago. We are inseparable. She comes out with the horses to gallop on the beach, we go on adventures up mountains, and she even comes to work with me at the vets. She’s not only the face of the practice (her photos are literally all over the walls!), but also a calm and comforting presence for other dogs who are in for surgery.

She has also helped raise an abandoned kitten that was brought into the vets close to death. Twig kept her warm and brought her back to life. It was adorable to see, you can’t make this stuff up!

Twig is the kindest and most warm-hearted dog I have ever met. She is also a true character and people just fall in love with her. When I am sad or anxious, she distracts and comforts me. She always knows what to do to.

And talk about a poser! If a camera comes out, Twig understands the assignment. But then again, it would be a crime for her not to share her beauty with the world!
