Paul O'Grady's back at Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. This week he meets a scary-looking Spanish Mastiff who's struggling to send the right signals, a stressed Staffie with a tennis ball addiction and a pair of timid chihuahuas, one of which needs to shift a few pounds.

Paul meets a six-year-old stray pug called Mildred with a long list of ailments including a terrible case of sarcoptic mites, a 10-month-old golden retriever called Patrick who's had a double hip replacement and is desperate to play again, and 11 rare blue whippet puppies about to embark on their new lives.
