Three legged race for Tailwaggers


A collie cross and his owner are undertaking a staggering 70-mile trek in aid of Tailwaggers Club Trust. Jennie Keighley and seven-year-old Troika will take on the challenge between 16 and 23 May along the Cumbria Way in the Lake District.
Jennie met Troika while volunteering at an animal shelter in Lancaster, when he was 18 months old. She said, "He came from a young owner who couldn't afford to keep him any more. Apparently, he had broken his back leg badly as a puppy, and the vet was unable to fix it, so it had to be amputated.  

"I hope to show that disabled animals can still live happy and fulfilling lives, and want to raise money to help treat ill or disabled pets, like Troika, and Tailwaggers fits the bill perfectly."

August 22nd 2014- Our lovely Troika died. He was a wonderful, loving and faithful friend who loved people and lived life to the full thanks to Jennie's TLC. She gave him a full and active life. We all miss Troika and will never forget him.x Posted by Jennie's Mum, Cath x
