Dog goes to Denmark!
When eight year old English Bull Terrier Ice, came to Battersea, she was indeed old, but still lovable. As her owner was unable to look after her, Ice remained at Battersea for 8 months. Until Ulla Munch-Peterson from Copenhagen came to her rescue! One of Ulla’s favourite breeds is that of the English Bull Terrier, as they are so rare in Scandinavian country. After browsing for Bull Terriers on the Internet, Ulla stopped in her tracks when she came across Ice on the charity’s website. She immediately applied to re-home Ice and flew straight to the UK to meet her.
Vicky Snook, Senior Rehomer at Battersea Old Windsor was greatly touched by the lengths Ulla went for to get Ice and commented how Ice had received very little interest over her 8 month stay. So Ulla came at just the right time.
Once Ice had gained her Pet Passport, staff from Battersea Old Windsor took Ice to Harwich port in Essex to meet Ulla. Of their first meeting Vicky Snook said:
“They really hit it off – they look so happy together.” And so the pair set off by sea to reach Copenhagen and live happily ever after
