Harley Has the Pet Factor

An 18-month-old English Springer Spaniel, known as Harley, has won a year’s free pet care with Vet’s Klinic in Swindon after being crowned Swindon’s Pet Factor.

Vet’s Klinic teamed up with JACK fm in a bid to find Swindon’s most talented pet.

The competition attracted an abundance of entries, however it was Harley’s talent of performing tricks and dancing for people in retirement homes and special needs schools around Wiltshire that shone through and made him the very deserving winner of The Pet Factor title.

Harley’s owner, Ellen Bothwick from Potterne, describes him as a wonderfully gentle dog who is perfect around the elderly and children with disabilities.

Ellen has taught Harley to perform over 80 different commands, which is quite extraordinary considering he is the first dog she has ever owned. She said:

“I’m simply delighted to have won The Pet Factor, especially after seeing some of the other superb competition entries. The prize is fantastic and I’ll enjoy bringing Harley to a vet practice that is so state-of-the-art with such a lovely attitude towards the care of pets and their owners.” 

Harley has his own website: www.pawsforeffect.co.uk where you can find out more information and see him in action.
