SPANIEL WHO LOVES THOSE BIG CATS

MOST of the time when Daisy the spaniel puppy watches TV she is disinterested. Daisy’s owner Jo Laybourn, 47, a carer from Chelmsford, Essex, says: ‘If she sees another dog on TV, she will just look up as if to say: “Oh, there’s another one like me.”

‘But when lions come on, like on Dynasties, she gets straight up, trots over and put her paws on the screen to get a closer look. She is fascinated by big cats and she wags her tail.

‘Daisy loves to chase cats in the back garden so must have worked out that lions are a bigger version — only these don’t run away when she barks.’
