Kym Marsh Re-homes RSPCA Puppy

Submitted by Jennifer White on January 19, 2010 – 11:31 amNo Comment

Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh has come to the rescue of a puppy named Oliver after seeing an appeal for him to be re-homed on the TV programme This Morning. Kym fell in love with Oliver, who’s a twelve-week-old retriever cross, the minute she spotted him on the show which was featuring dogs abandoned over the Christmas period.

Kym said “I was off work and we were watching the show and I felt so sorry for all the dogs, but little Oliver walked on and looked so chilled in the studio, he just melted our hearts”.

Oliver was found in a box by the bins outside a pet shop in Surrey just after Christmas and was taken to Chobham’s Millbrook Animal Centre.

Chief Inspector Simon Osborne appeared on the TV show with Oliver and a Staffordshire cross puppy named Saffy who was abandoned on Boxing Day.

Immediately after the feature, dog lover Kym Marsh contacted the programme desperate to speak with the RSPCA and offer Oliver a new home.

The RSPCA agreed to visit her home to ensure it would be suitable for a puppy, and on Sunday 10 January, Kym and her partner, ex-Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas and their family visited Millbrook to meet Oliver and introduce him to their seven-year-old Chihuahua named Charlie.

Kym added: “The RSPCA do an amazing job for not just dogs but all animals and I’m so pleased to be able to support the Society and adopt Oliver to give him the home he deserves.”
