Touching story of a guide dog for another dog

Franky has taken on the role of guide dog for little, blind Elly, who sniffs the air to locate him and then nuzzles up to follow him wherever he goes. The pair, who are both four, have been taken in by Newport RSPCA officials, who say they must be homed together.

"He looks out for her and provides support while guiding her on walks or to food or water," said Elaine Buchan. Both Elly and Franky must go to the same new home, says the Newport RSPCA. The pugs will need operations before they are able to leave for any new home which offers to take them both in. "There's absolutely no option of homing them separately as it would break their hearts and also be wholly impractical," said Mrs Buchan, the Newport RSPCA manager.

"They're great little dogs and I'm already jealous of the lucky owner who will get to care for such a loving pair." Mrs Buchan said Franky, a boisterous and playful dog, looked out for Elly, who is affectionate and cuddly.
