We need some food, plenty of dog biscuits - and I could do with a nice new warm, fluffy blanket...

That was, we think, what Roxy the dog was saying when given £1,000 to spend a Supermarket Sweep-style shopping trip to a pets store.

The Dog Trust Snetterton resident was given the money to spend at Pets at Home's Thetford store on anything she and her four-legged friends needed back at the Norfolk rehoming centre.

Barely 'pawsing' for a second to look at a shopping list, the six-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier made sure she led her human chum Nickie Wilson to all the best bits and stocked their trolley high with squeaky toys, soft beds, fluffy blankets and fine treats.

Tom Storeton-West, Pets at Home Thetford store manager, said: 'We loved having Roxy come and visit the store.

'She was a very determined shopper, wanting only the best for her and the dogs at the rehoming centre. Her very full trolley looks like she found lots to delight them all.

'Our VIP Club Members have responded really positively to be able to donate Lifelines to their chosen charities, so we're hoping this will be the first of many visits from Dogs Trust residents.'

'We endeavour to make our rehoming centre a home from home while the dogs wait to meet their new families so we like to fill it with lots of home comforts like comfy blankets or their favourite toys.

'After this shopping trip we're going to be spoilt for choice. On behalf of all the dogs, a huge waggy-tailed thank you.'
