Prepare for a dose of heartwarming canine reunions as Clare Balding returns with Lost Dog, Found Dog. This season kicks off with tales of incredible survival and unwavering dedication. First up is Figgy, the Spaniel who took a tumble down a 300-foot cliff. Did he survive? You’ll have to watch to find out (but let’s just say the title gives a pretty big hint). Then there’s Daisy, the French Bulldog whose owner embarked on an epic eight-week search, refusing to give up hope. It goes to show the powerful bond between humans and their four-legged friends.
Jazz, a working Cocker Spaniel, vanished from a Welsh farm, only to turn up over fifty miles away in an ambulance. How did he get there? The mystery unfolds. But Lost Dog, Found Dog isn’t just about tear-jerking reunions. It’s packed with practical advice too. Reporter Chloe Fuller meets 11-year-old Poppy, forced to part with her beloved dog due to family hardship, while Clare Balding witnesses a litter of Staffie pups receiving their microchips. The show also offers expert training tips on recall and insights from a dog warden on what happens when a lost dog is found. Need some cheap and cheerful dog toy ideas? The online community has you covered.
Plus, Clare introduces Webster, a 7-month-old Lurcher looking for a loving home. And don’t miss the updates on Teddy and Bear, two dogs featured in the previous series. Their stories are sure to warm your heart.
