RED, a three-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback who lives in Castlefields, Runcorn, is our pet of the week.

Her owner Karen Gerrard said: “Red is so special to me and my husband, she is our little girl.

“She comes everywhere with us.

“She loves walks on the canal, running for her stick, jumping over the waves on Formby beach and she's a big poser.

“Red is the most loving dog we have ever known.

“I’m sure she thinks she's human. She has a teddy owl that she carries everywhere with her.”
