Breed : Victorian Bulldog

Sex : Female

Weight : 25kg

Favourite pastimes :

  1. Any toy that she can chew and chew until her eyes roll back in her head.

  2. Rolling down hills.

  3. Chewing her paws (she has really bad allergies).

Obsessions :

  1. Duvets!!!!! She will literally do anything, walk over anyone to get to a duvet and lay down in it.

Classic moments :

  1. When Stark ran through a wasp nest and then set them all onto Farrah. She got stung all over her face, bless her.

  2. Biting through the metal edging on the wall when she was a puppy, pulling at it and then pulling all the plaster off the wall.

Classic moments:

  1. Having multiple operations to have ‘things’ removed from his stomach. So far, he has had a sock and a cotton reel removed on separate occasions. However, he has thrown up, kitchen towels, a plastic dust pan and brush, almost the whole boxset (DVDs and plastic casing) of Harry Potter (he left the first film untouched). All came back up at a later point…..Nice.

  2. Stark doesn’t really ever bark, but he does do sleep howls all the time.
