Boris Johnson has a new dog or, rather, puppy. He’s a 15-week old Jack Russell Terrier mix who was plucked from the pound before he “went over the rainbow bridge”.
With his fair-haired mop and big innocent eyes, he’ll be more beloved than his Downing Street flatmate could ever hope for.
This is the Downing Street dog – a Jack Russell-cross puppy who arrived today (Monday) in Boris Johnson’s flat above No11.
Just weeks ago the 15-week-old, who is yet to be named, faced being shot or drowned after being abandoned by a south Wales puppy farmer.
But he was saved by a volunteer-run rescue charity in south Wales – and has now been plucked to stardom by the PM and his partner Carrie Symonds.
The pet was abandoned by a puppy farmer for having an undershot and misaligned jaw, meaning he was unlikely to sell and could have faced being destroyed.
Isn’t he cute? I wonder what they will name him.

Both my guesses were wrong. It’s “Dilyn”. Well, he IS Welsh!

That would NOT have been one of my guess either. LOL

I just read that Dilyn will be staying at No. 11 Downing Street, while Larry the cat lives at No. 10 Downing, so it is unlikely that Dilyn will cause any problems for Larry. Just in case you were wondering.

I could be wrong, but he looks like a man who would treat a dog well.

I think he and his girlfriend have been behind legislation to curb puppy mills in Britain.
