Battersea Dogs and Cats Home is absolutely full of spaniels. Most of them are full of energy, but Paul meets one who was found tied up and has lost all hope. Paul needs to help rebuild his trust in humans. He meets a feisty shorkie with a Spanish chip and a worryingly large lump and a yappy patterdale who needs to learn some manners if he'll ever find a home. There's also a very special visitor to Battesea… comedian Harry Hill.

Episode 6
Paul meets some beautiful dogs who are all still struggling to find a home - two of the dogs have already been returned to Battersea once, and they just don't seem cut out for normal homes as they're so boisterous. Paul tries his best to help them find working homes, but will they make the cut?

The presenter goes rogue when he's asked to help bottle-feed a pair of week-old kittens who were found abandoned on a building site - and he discovers that not everything is as they seem with these two bundles of fur.
