For the love of Dogs - Paul O'Grady.

[mrs.chappie]

Is anyone else in tears over Sparkle? :o(

[Duncer]

If it belongs to Paul O'Grady then no.

[mrs.chappie]

Poor wee thing was dumped in a suitcase and left to die. Paul O'Grady is fronting the programme (FTLOD) filmed at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home, on the telly now.

[Duncer]

That's different. Poor dog. They should have put O'Grady in the suitcase instead.

[mrs.chappie]

Can I ask why you dislike Paul O'Grady so much, Duncer? :o/

[marval]

I am not watching it, but who could do that to a poor defenceless dog?

[katburd]

what channel no please, thanks

[seadogg]

Haven't seen this one but happened to be reading the "Homer", magazine for people who rescue greyhounds and nearly filled up.

[mrs.chappie]

Poor thing was in an appalling state, starving and all her ribs where sticking out of her body. Heartbreaking to see.

Three weeks on and she's gone to a good home, thank God.

[mrs.chappie]

It was on Channel 3 but it's just finished. On again next week though.

[katburd]

ok mrs chappie, thank you for reply

[NoMercy]

I blubbed !

Can't see what's wrong with PO'G...he clearly adores animals...

[mrs.chappie]

I was thinking the same, NM. He is so very kind to animals, gets a big thumbs up in my book.

[rsvp]

anything that promotes amimal care is okay by me -

[katburd]

programme not showing in scotland :(

[Kerosene]

I don't know why I torture myself by watching these kinds of programmes? I used to think I was a 'roughie toughie' but I just disintegrate when I see some of the things done to these loveable creatures.

[mrs.chappie]

That's a shame, Kat. I wonder if you could watch it on the computer? (Don't really know how that sort of thing works for different areas).

I'm the same, Kerosene - I know I'll be upset but I still watch 'em.

[katburd]

mrs.chappie, I will search around online, thanks again for reply

[Kerosene]

I even cracked up when Neil Fox and his kids were given the puppy. But thank God that Sparkle not only made a full recovery but also found a great home - I totally dissolved when she met her new owners and immediately jumped into the lady's lap - such trust even after the horrific experiences she'd had.

[mrs.chappie]

I hope you find it, Kat.

Kerosene, I agree, it's fabulous that she's gone to such a good home. That really cheered me up.
