Not sure how many will get homed by the celebs as I saw Selina and the other news reader, the one with the dog with large ears, being interviewed on BBC1 Breakfast and neither had any intention of keeping them due to family circumstances.
I think Claudia the Afghan is very lucky being re-homed with a multi-millionaire, do you think he might adopt me too!
Years ago when I was 14 years old, my parents, our german shepherd and I was on a TV show called "Thats My Dog" which involved your working with your own dog to acheive tasks.

I really enjoyed it and like the others have said if it highlights the plight of recue dogs then in my opinion it can only be a good thing.

I hope for Claudia's sake, Theo will be dedicated to her.

:smt017 He seemed more interested in getting himself on TV rather than the cause it was for.
The comments about the dogs colour I suspect are in jest, for a bit of craic. I doubt he was serious. I think he made the comments about the dog being "Ginger" was because of the famous dancer, Ginger Rodgers...
He's the kinda guy you need to take with a pinch of salt.

Its enough for me NOT to home a breed such as an Afghan with this family.
