We were so excited to get Winston the Great Dane and his family in the magazine this month because he was the biggest dog we had ever seen! If you look at the white dog Porche on the right, she is a huge Great Dane, so by comparisson Winston is ginormous!

All the dogs Anne helps to rehome, including Porche and Winston are saved by a wonderful lady in Sheffield called Pat. She rescues as many dogs as possible from being put to sleep and cares for them until Sue from Guernsey Animal Aid can collect them and look after them before they find new homes, so a big thank-you to them both.
