The Dog Rescuers

QI expert Alan Davies, introduces incredible stories of Dog rescues from the RSPCA's Newbrook Animal Centre. In Birmingham, Inspector Scott Vanes saves a young Staffie tethered to a makeshift kennel, in a filthy rubbish strewn garden. In London, Inspector Annie Simmonds visits a house where a family of Staffies where new born puppies are kept outside in unsuitable conditions. Inspector Herchy Boal visits a house in Birmingham and discovers Archie, a shockingly thin Labrador. Last year Inspector Sarah Hughes rescued emaciated Ridgebacks Carla and Dudley. We revisit Carla in her new home. With RSPCA archive footage, we see a father and son due who routinely trained their dogs to kill wildlife, but thanks to Inspector Anthony Joynes’ they didn’t get away with their abhorrent cruelty. And we spend a day with super-rescue dog Sky, as she and owner Laura Field compete in the Adams Agility Show.
