Doggy Tales

Stay on the Sunny side of life!

Every week Latest 7 will regale you with tales about the dogs who reside in Brighton (via their owners) and also introduce you to rescue dogs, looking for forever homes. This week, meet Sunny, a gorgeous Golden Retriever, owned by the equally lovely Lady San Pedro.

“We met Sunny in Manila when we still lived there. She was the smallest and the darkest of the litter, and was affectionate from the start. Taking turns to go for walks, my partner and I found ourselves meeting friends she’s made in the neighbourhood. “You’re Sunny’s other owner!” people would say.

“When we were moving, a kid came to the house crying. She brought a goodbye card for Sunny saying how much she would miss her. We’ve since had acquaintances ask to come over with their kids, or even just to meet Sunny themselves!

“In the past eight years, we’ve moved to Barcelona, London and now Brighton, where Sunny continues to make new friends. Still, her best friend is Kitty Bang Bang, our Persian cat from whom she picked up feline habits. Cleaning herself only makes her smelly though.

“I’m a cat person to the core, but living with Sunny is a constant reminder to appreciate the simple things. Counting three countries and four cities now, we’ve seen her joy transcend language and location. Perhaps weather too.

“England may lack sunny days but this puppy girl always has something to be excited about. If you see us, say hi!”
