Annie Graham on the joys and heartbreak of offering temporary homes to dogs in need

Annie Graham
Fostering Goodwill

THIS is Noah, my most recent four-legged friend. He’s a one-year-old saluki lurcher cross and is utterly adorable.

When I heard myself telling Lara King from Radio Humberside that ‘I volunteer in the kennels’ when she visited Hull Animal Welfare Trust (HAWT) this summer, it took me by surprise. That might sound odd but, until relatively recently, I didn’t even know I liked dogs!

It started when I began walking with a friend who has two beautiful German shepherds. That was it; I was hooked and have never looked back.
