A very Happy Birthday to one of our special lads!
‘I was very excited because I celebrated my 8th birthday in September!
I am in forever foster with my foster mum because I have Copper Toxicosis and need
to stay close to BTRF so they can keep an eye on me to make sure I stay well.
I was very spoilt (even more than normal!) – look at all these toys! I just don’t know
which ones to play with first!!!
Thank you everyone for your kind donations that help to keep me well and happy
and able to celebrate yet another birthday! And a very special thank you to my foster
mum who loves me very much’.

Copper Toxicosis is a potentially fatal condition among a small number of dog
breeds, including the Bedlington Terrier.

disease and often leads to the animal's death at a young age.
