Doggy love getting us through ’ruff’ times

Kate Roberts' gorgeous old boy Norman with her daughter, aka Norm's 'sister', Alice.

They say dogs are a man’s best friend, and throughout all of the difficulties of the past 18 months, many of us have come to realise just how true this is.

Through thick and thin, our doggy companions have been by our sides, getting us through the hard times and snuggling up for a cuddle when we’re feeling down.

They get us out and walking in the morning, and never fail to put a smile on our faces with their goofy antics.

Star Weekly thought it was a good opportunity to pay homage to some of our furry four-legged friends.

From big chonky doggos to little tiny fluffballs and every pup in between, we’re grateful for the canine companions in our lives – so here’s to many more p-awesome adventures to come!
