Like the real royal couple who got their own happily-ever-after, the two puppies recently found their special someone and have since gone to fantastic new homes. However, there are still plenty of dogs at the Rehoming Centre such as Eric, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier who absolutely adores companionship and enjoys learning new tricks.

Dogs Trust Ballymena Supporter Relations Officer Samuel Reid said: “Everything we do is for our rescue dogs and we hope you and your four-legged friends can join us on the day and show your support. We can promise you a really fun day out for all the family, with lots of activities available throughout the day.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity to meet local dog lovers and raise pounds for the hounds in our care as the proceeds from the day help us to care for all the dogs like Eric at the Rehoming Centre.”
