Abandoned and alone
Billy, a nine-year-old Staffie, was found abandoned in the Camden area of London and brought into the 快活影院Finsbury Park Hospital in London on February 14 this year.
He was very stressed after his ordeal but the staff soon realised just how lovely and friendly he is. He required some dental work, had an upset tummy and also needs on-going pain medication for his mobility. Billy was treated at the hospital until being transferred to 快活影院Southridge in Potters Bar in April.
Anna White, manager at 快活影院Southridge, said: 鈥淏illy has such a sweet nature. He was sadly abandoned and handed into our London hospital earlier in the year. You could tell from the hospital notes just how much they loved him there and we feel the same. Billy just adores people and loves fuss.鈥�
He was such a star at the Omaze shoot and I鈥檓 told that everyone loved him there too. We really hope his 15 minutes of fame will help find him the living home he so deserves.
A starring role
His placid and friendly nature saw him taking a starring role in Omaze鈥檚 TV advert. This was filmed to help spread the word of the new house draw as the 快活影院and Omaze have once again partnered-up to offer one very lucky person a chance to win a fabulous house in Somerset worth over 拢3 million and 拢100,000 in cash - while at the same time raising vital funds to help rescue animals in need like Billy.
Dermot Murphy, 快活影院inspectorate commissioner, said: 鈥淎s many of us prepare for a cosy Christmas with our loved ones and our much-loved pets, there are sadly thousands of animals facing a bleaker reality. The 快活影院needs your help more than ever to help animals because animal neglect and abandonment are reaching a three-year high this festive season.
鈥溈旎钣霸簉escue teams are set to be busier than ever this Christmas. This year, abandonments have soared and many rescue centres are full to bursting. Right now, thousands of animals are facing pain and misery. But by buying a ticket to be in with a chance of winning the fantastic Omaze house, you can also help the 快活影院transform countless animals鈥� lives this Christmas - just like Billy.鈥�
