Sparkle, the Dog of the Day
Name: Sparkle
Age: Five years old
Gender: Female Breed: Tibetan Terrier, Lhasa Apso Mix
Home: England
 
   Sparkle is adored by hundreds of children across the north west of England. You see Sparkle is a very special dog, not just to us but to all these children. She also has a place in the hearts of the sick and the elderly. Sparkle is a trained show business dog, she is trained to perform tricks, in which she can do fourteen. So, apart from going into Hospitals and performing on the children's wards to cheer the sick children up and make them laugh, she also does the same in nursing homes. When she is not doing that, she is entertaining children at Birthday parties were she is accompanied by her 16-month-old daughter Wispa who has now also started to perform tricks, and JoJo the clown. Sparkle has made a number of appearances on Television, including The Big Breakfast, Blue Peter, GMTV, and The Disney channel, were she has been asked to show off her talents. Sparkle has also traveled nation wide on a eight-month tour in theatre, in the stage version of Enid Blytons The Famous Five, Musical, and also in Annie. We are often asked to take Sparkle along, to make a guest appearance at Charity shows. So you can now see why she is our special pet, loved by us and loved by hundreds, and why we named her Sparkle? Because she sparkles in everybody's eyes.
