Absolute Radio has discovered that they have an
audience full of dog lovers. Absolute’s ‘Hometime Show’, hosted by Geoff Lloyd between 5pm – 8pm every weekday, asked their
listeners to send in stories of the dearly departed dogs that they've had
throughout the years.
The sad loss of a dog can be a delicate subject, but the
segment called 'Dead Dog Memorial Wall' often took a light-hearted and humorous
approach to honouring their beloved canine companions. The feature has been so popular that the
station even decided to write a song about it! You can check it out below:
Penned by Geoff himself, alongside his co–presenter Annabel Port, the
song entitled ‘The Dead Dogs Memorial Song’
was recorded by English indie pop duo, The Boy Least
Likely To (whose music has featured the hit TV show Grey’s Anatomy as well as adverts for Apple, Coca-Cola and
Cadbury).
“So how does this relate to Dogs Trust?”
Well, Absolute Radio has very
kindly offered to donate all profits from the sale of the single directly to Dogs Trust. It’s a very lovely sentiment that will help us
with our work in ensuring that no healthy dog is ever destroyed.
The crowd-sourced song recounts the unforgettable and
individual quirks that made the dogs such special pets, from licking ashtrays
clean to eating an entire raw turkey. We
think we can all relate to the unique and silly reasons that we love our pets.
‘The Dead Dogs Memorial Song’ is available to download on iTunes now with
all profits going to Dogs Trust.
