Dog of the Match – Arsenal

As the Club for dog lovers, we are featuring a ‘Dog of the Match’ at every home game throughout the season.

Members of Tottenham Hotspaw – our first-ever Official Supporters’ Club for dog lovers – have been posting pictures of their beloved pets on the group’s Facebook page for a chance for them to be featured on the stadium big screens ahead of kick-off and in the matchday programme.

Our ‘Dog of the Match’ for this Sunday’s North London Derby with Arsenal is Randall, a six-year-old Golden Shepherd who lives in Goffs Oak with parents Richard and Carolyn Wood. He was bred and trained to be a guide dog before being adopted, meaning he can now pursue his new career of chasing squirrels in the woods, enjoying weekend breaks on the beach in Norfolk and raiding picnic hampers when no-one’s looking! His favourite players are ‘Destiny Udoggie’ and ‘Great Dane Scarlett’! Dad Richard has a Season Ticket in the South Stand and is a lifelong supporter going back to the 1970s.

Alongside our ‘Dog of the Match’, we also profile rescue dogs currently up for adoption with All Dogs Matter – the fantastic charity partner of Tottenham Hotspaw - giving fans the chance to provide a forever home so badly needed.

At Sunday’s match, we’ll be featuring Grady – a sweet tri-pawed Bulldog who came to All Dogs Matter after sadly being abandoned. Three-year-old Grady is a proper charmer and everyone who meets him falls in love. He can be a little dominant with other dogs but is happily living with another dog in his foster home. Grady has three legs and manages to get around just fine. He will be looking for a home with minimal stairs and direct access to a garden.
