Hundreds offer home to canine escaper
13 April 2012
Hundreds of people were today offering a home to the Harry Houdini of the canine world.
A stray lurcher, named Red, learned how to unbolt his cage door at London's Battersea Dogs' Home. The pet would break out at night and then release other dogs.
Staff were mystified until CCTV caught the dogs running amok on camera.
Now the home has had hundreds of calls since Red appeared in the media.
Amy Watson, communications officer for the home, said today: "We have had more than 300 calls so far and expect more over the course of this week."
