Help Us Support Jeffrey, my Retired Guide Dog.

My wonderful retired guide dog, Jeffrey, has become very poorly. He has spent the last two days and nights at the vets, where we’ve learned he has a tumour on his spleen and signs of liver damage. He now needs urgent, specialist scans to understand the full extent of what’s going on.

There is a possibility he may need an operation to remove his spleen, but until the scans are completed, we simply don’t know what the next steps will be.

Many people may recognise Jeffrey from the day he went viral on X (https://x.com/footballontnt/status/1710617802657103950) with over 8 million views during the Premier League match between Luton Town and Tottenham at Kenilworth Road. He brought so much joy to so many that day—just as he has brought joy, independence, and love to me throughout his working life.

The Guide Dogs for the Blind Association have kindly stepped in to cover his veterinary bills, and I am deeply grateful for their support. Jeffrey gave me years of independence, loyalty, and love, and I would really like to contribute towards the cost of his care as a way of giving something back.

If you are able to donate—no matter the amount—it would mean so much to me, my family, and I’m sure to Guide Dogs as well. Jeffrey has given so much throughout his life, and we want to make sure he receives the very best care in return.

Thank you for reading Jeffrey’s story and for any support you can offer.
