Woof Like to Meet - The Wedding!

Now I don't want to be a party pooper, really I don't but I have to draw the line here.

Did you know that Harrods organises weddings for dogs? Can you believe it? Well, you probably can. Apparently it's part of the "Anything is Possible" season....

Well, ITV's Loose Women decided that what they needed was a good wedding to attend and what better than to have its own doggy wedding in the studio. If you check out ITV's website, you can see the wedding for yourselves www.itv.com/page.asp?partid=6947..here's what it says:

The day finally dawned for the puptials of canoodling canines Charlie and Dolly!

Yes, after sifting through the hordes of hairy applicants and barking bitches, Charlie finally settled on the divine Dolly as his beloved woof-to-be.

Super showman, John Barrowman officiated; now I like him but surely this was too much? I’m even more surprised to discover he took part, considering he is a patron of the charity, Dogs Trust. Surely they don’t condone this sort of nonsense?

Does he know Harrods sells puppies in its store? Yes it does. Go along to the pet department if you don’t believe me. They currently have three pugs in the shop, so if one takes your fancy, buy it there and then... Of course, any dog lover will tell you that this is a big NO NO. Surely Dogs Trust doesn’t endorse puppies being sold in a department store? Oh well, I guess times have changed and I am an old stick in the mud!

And I wonder whether Michael Grade will consider that this is good TV and something that ITV will be doing more of, now that he has taken over as Chairman. Who can say?

Hi, saw your comment regards Dogs Trust and Harrods, and thought I'd point you to this story (http://helpoutlawpuppyfarms.blogspot.com/2006/11/harrods.html).

I think we all know that Dogs Trust would never endorse puppies being rehomed in anyway where the dog's wellbeing is not paramount. Having a Dogs Trust dog, I can safely say their rehoming process is second to none, and they relly do make sure that their dogs only go to appropriate and suitable homes.

Love the blog, keep it up!
