There is a new top dog in Downing Street after Boris Johnson and his girlfriend Carrie Symonds took delivery of a rescue puppy. The Jack Russell – which has yet to be named – was carried into Number 10 to meet its new owners on Monday. The rescue dog came from the Friends of Animals Wales charity, which said the “gorgeous pup will be living his best life with Carrie and the Prime Minister at their Downing Street home”. The Prime Minister’s official spokesman said: “They are a fantastic charity run by volunteers who work around the clock to make a difference to animals. “The Prime Minister has always been a passionate supporter of animal welfare and has always believed that animals should always get the right start in life. “That’s why the Government has taken such significant action in this area, and that obviously includes introducing Lucy’s Law.”
