By Alison, Rodney’s Mum & Fundraiser for the PDWRA
20th December 2024
Sadly, on 19th December our little Rodney passed away peacefully. He would have been 9 years old a few days later.
Rodney came to us 3 years ago to the day as a PDWRA temporary foster boy, for a Christmas stay… We failed miserably at just fostering and he ended up staying with us.
He was a real Mummy’s boy and loved his adopted siblings, Ethel & Leonard. His best hobbies were eating carrots, playing with his large cuddly pumpkin and going out in his “Pug-Buggy” when his little wobbly legs could not carry him anymore.
The picture above is Rodney helping with packing merchandise that I design to donate profits to PDWRA, taken a while ago.
Unfortunately, Rodney aged too soon. He had cataracts, his legs became too wobbly through his back problems and he was losing control of his bowels.

He was using his pug buggy to go out and about with, which he really loved to do. He was a real Mummies boy.
Ethel and Leonard were quite depressed for about 2 weeks. He leaves a big hole…he was a little Character as are all Pugs!
Rodney’s Mummy, Alison
