One final lick gave terrier survival chance

Mr Davies, a self employed caravan repairer, said: "The girls love Dilwyn but understand we are not keeping him.

"He is a guest in our house and sleeps in the dining room.

"At first he was a bit sensitive and we kept the telly on to comfort him. "Dilwyn is a real character. He can march for 200 yards on his belly like a commando. Whether he likes grass under his tummy I don't know."

Mrs Davies added: "He is an angel, batty as a box of frogs but very loving and cuddly and loves belly rubs.

"He has no faults that we have come across apart from being an 'escape artist' which makes us think he might be from another area in North Wales to where he was found.

Or he may have been stolen and then dumped."

She added: "He is quite good with other dogs but he really doesn't like cats."

Veterinary nurse Lynda Christian, who saved the animal, was unavailable yesterday but a vet at her practice, Jane Williams, said: "We were delighted to help.

"Lynda also noticed a numbered tattoo in the dog's ear and wanted to find out more about it."

Last night, the Bull Terrier Club Welfare Trust revealed it had found a possible owner for Dilwyn.

Staff are arranging a meeting between the prospective new owner and the dog.

Trust spokeswoman Diana Gay said: "This dog has been very lucky with the nurse who behaved so responsibly in getting in touch with us and the way he has been looked after by the Davieses."

She wants any new owners to be vetted as bull terriers can be sought after by "very inappropriate people" in the dog fighting world.
