Mr Pickles named Battersea's naughtiest dog
Mr Pickles
An errant beagle by the name of Mr Pickles has gained a reputation as one of Battersea's naughtiest dogs, due to his mischievous antics.
The one-year-old Mr Pickles was taken to Battersea Dogs and Cats Home in January after his owners moved home and could no longer look after him.
Since then, he has sadly been rehomed and brought back to Battersea twice because of his wayward behaviour, which includes shoe-stealing, jumping on tables, barking and leaving a trail of destruction behind him.
Anyone who tunes in to the series finale of Paul O'Grady: For the Love of Dogs on July 4, will see Mr Pickles wreaking havoc whilst dog lover Paul O'Grady attempts to train him!
The mischievous Beagle has now been moved from London to Battersea's Old Windsor Centre, in the hope that the quiet countryside of West Berkshire will have a calming influence on him.
"Mr Pickles is doing much better here, although he’s still very cheeky," says Vicky Snook, senior rehomer. "His favourite thing is stealing objects he shouldn’t have and turning it into a game.
"He can be a bit of a naughty boy but he’s had a really unsettled start to life. He’s got a great character and has lots of potential. All he needs is someone with lots of experience – and plenty of patience!"
The series finale of Paul O'Grady: For the Love of Dogs will air tonight on ITV at 8:30pm. Battersea is hoping to find Mr Pickles an owner who is willing to take on a training challenge.
