Lucy Kennedy has revealed her rescue pup has changed her life for the better.
The mother-of-three adopted an 11-week-old puppy from Milo’s Mission Rescue last week, named Riley.
Taking to Instagram this week, the TV presenter shared a photo of Riley cuddled up to her daughters Holly and Jessica.
She captioned the post: “My three girls ❤️❤️❤️ It’s week two having Riley in our family and I am only now relaxing to be honest!!”
“Using her crate if needed during the day when showering in peace or homeschooling/ working/ doing a wee and not panicking!!! I feel like I’m getting to know her better.”

Lucy also warned her followers: “I cannot stress this enough though. Be VERY, VERY sure that you are ready for a fury newborn because they are work.”
“We love her completely and utterly but I’ve laughed, cried, panicked… you name it!!! All emotions in the last 10 days and she was partially trained!!!!!”
“I will say though that if you ARE ready, a dog will change your life and your children’s lives for the better.”
“Our children have learnt patience, kindness, forgiveness and responsibility so far and they love it. They love having a fury sister to look after.”

“We applied to adopt this time last year and now the stars have finally aligned. We are all so besotted with her.”
