Wylie

'When people gave up on Wylie Wylie refused to give up on people.'

For a street dog born in the city of Kandahar Afghanistan to be crowned top dog at Scruffts a competition for crossbreeds held during Crufts the largest dog show on earth is nothing short of a miracle. But for Wylie the gentle cropped eared ball of fur miracles seemed to happen quite regularly.

Beaten and abused while being used as a bait dog Wylie suffered terrible injuries that needed urgent treatment. Rescued close to death with hacked off ears and a severed tail he was attended to by soldiers who feared he would not last the night. Astonishingly he did only to return days later with new injuries.

However a lifeline came when he was handed over to animal welfare Charity Nowzad and flown to Britain in the hope of finding a new life. But would anyone take a chance on a seemingly nervous and undomesticated stray? Luckily for Wylie his biggest adventure yet was about to begin...

This is the incredible and heart-warming story full of tragedy and triumph of a dog who never gave up hope.
