Lottie

 'Lottie' is our 13-year-old Jack Russell Terrier. When awake, she's very bright and bouncy. She's almost completely blind. We rescued her with the help of Pine Ridge Dog Sanctuary in Ascot. Her previous owner was going to have her put to sleep the following day because of her failing eyesight. Fortunately, we got to her on time. That was three years ago.


At first, she bumped into things. However, she got to know her way around the flat, patio, and garden after a while. She only barks at the entryphone, the smoke alarm, and the fireworks.

She is a lovely loving dog, and I'm so pleased we've got her!
