How ‘Britain’s most caring dog’ has touched the lives of others ...

Gentle Lab cross Mike has taken 20 other dogs under his wing over the past two years while he has been at a Sussex rescue centre, helping them to find new homes - and now he is in need of a new home himself.

A team at the Dogs Trust centre in Shoreham have been so impressed with Mike’s ability to make any dog feel at home, that they have been introducing him to some of the shyer residents to help them learn the ropes and come out of their shell when they arrive at the centre.

Mike acts as a life coach to newer dogs helping them learn to play and meet new dogs out on walks. Staff are now hoping Mike will find his very own best friend in the form of a new owner.
