Pedro💔😢💔😢💔😢

Paul O’Grady said that when you rescue a dog it will inevitably end in heartache, but you don’t worry about the hangover when you’re at the party💔 And life with Pedro was one big party - the happiest little dog you could ever meet. He loved everybody, everydog and everyfood😍

He was found as a stray in Spain, along with his brother, and the wonderful @terriersosuk rescued them and brought them to the UK🙏 Pedro was a tiny little nervous thing when we first brought him home, but it didn’t take him long for him to grow in size and personality😍 And every minute spent with Pedro was full of fun, joy, mischief and love🐶❤️

Pedro adored his big brother Diego, and when Diego died in April 2024 he was absolutely heartbroken💔 And the stress of losing Diego caused a previously dormant condition to flare up and he went blind, so in the space of 2 weeks Pedro lost his big brother and his sight😢

For weeks our happy little dog was a sad little dog😢 but gradually he regained his love of life and adjusted well to being blind❤️ And for the last 2+ years Pedro was living his best life again - campervan weekends, pub beer gardens and ALL the food❤️

Our hearts are broken, but we feel so so lucky that we had over 8 years of being part of the Pedro party❤️

It’s impossible to sum Pedro up with 10 pictures, but here are some of my faves:

1. My all-time favourite photo of Pedro, he jumped up to sit next to Tom in a pub in the Brecon Beacons as if they were best buddies having a pint together🥰
2. Soon after we rescued him and brought him home to Brighton😍
3. He loved his big brother so much🐶❤️🐶
4. He loved van life and had so many weekends away campervanning with us🚐
5. He could always be found at races supporting and crewing🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️
6. He loved a beer garden, especially if it involved making new friends and extra treats😍
7. He’d sit at the top of the hill at Devils Dyke with me watching Tom do hill reps and would squeak with excitement every time he got close🥰
8. Trying to teach Pilates on Zoom during lockdown and he would always want to get involved😍
9. Life was always full of

In 2023 Tom finished UTS100k and said he wouldn’t ever come back and do the 100 miles even if they gave him quadruple Stones😆

In 2025 Tom finished UTS100 miles and said we were never coming back to Llanberis ever again😆

And here we were just 1 year later back in Llanberis for Tom to run @ultratrailsnowdonia UTS80k🫠

Brighton Marathon 3:36😎

Didn’t want to disrupt Comrades training, but can’t not run Brighton these days🙃 Also really wanted to wear my new Lululemon animal print shorts💁‍♀️

Kept it cruisy for a high 5s, good times and ticking the GFA box kind of day and had an absolute blast - marathons are a lot more fun when you’re not running them at marathon pace😆

Thanks to everyone for all the cheers, especially number 1 cheer squad @rhianonruns 🥰 Brighton on Brighton marathon day is just the best🤩
