Four-year-old Canicross Champion, Marley, is admitted to Fitzpatrick’s after being diagnosed with severe dysplasia of the elbow. Mel fears his condition will force him to retire from the sled sports the pair regularly compete in.

In 2016 Noel met Charlie and his six-year-old 40kg Rottweiler Cross, Lulu, who was so badly affected with spinal disease that she could no longer stand and had to be carried everywhere. The two share a very special bond: Lulu came to Charlie’s aid when he was attacked during a burglary and he will stop at nothing to help her in return.
