Mr Williams, 55, He said: 'He is the biggest-hearted dog in the world. He is such a fantastic animal. People love seeing him. They play with him all day.

'He's afraid of his own shadow, he's absolutely great with kids and an absolute star.
'He brings us a lot of happiness and is so easy to look after. He's just got a terrific temperament and never gives us a minute's problems.'
