But is Paul the person to teach Boo some patience?! Plus, Paul is reunited with Bella, an eight-year-old Beagle who was seen arriving at Battersea from a puppy farm in the Christmas 2018 episode. Bella went to a new home but is back at Battersea after the dog she lived with passed away and she couldn’t cope. Now all she wants for Christmas is a new best friend…
Paul is hoping to find a loving home for all the dogs before Christmas day. After he pays a visit to the Brands Hatch site he meets Peppermint Patty, a Parsons Terrier, who was handed in with a massive lump on her neck. He is soon bowled over by her charming personality despite her worrisome growth.
Paul returns to Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in for a seasonal special visit, to bring some much-needed festive cheer to the canine residents. This time, he seeks to find a home for Bernard, a four-month-old dachshund-cross puppy born with a heart condition, and feisty two-year-old chihuahua Billo, who was born with his kneecaps back to front. Paul also tells the stories of Igloo and Maple, two akitas who urgently need to go on a diet, Gracie the lurcher, who arrives with a severe case of mange, and seven-week-old Jack Russell Arnold, whose plight melts the hearts of everyone he meets - including a feline fellow resident.
