Alison Hammond carries on the legacy left by the much-loved Paul O'Grady as she heads to Battersea Dogs and Cats Home to help the animals in their care

Alison this time meets a lurcher who was found tied up in a cemetery, a stressed-out French bulldog who is struggling to breathe, and a very matted bichon frise.

Alison helps a pug with all sorts of different ailments, meets a German Shepherd who is scared of her own shadow, and helps to train a litter of lurcher pups.

Alison meets two of Battersea's longest residents, helps a three-month-old whippet with some swimming lessons, and befriends a shy Maltese with trust issues.
