Meet the Taylor Swift-themed guide dog puppies – Betty, August, Inez, and more


Eleven guide dog puppies have been given names inspired by Taylor Swift’s lyrics and song titles.

Guide Dogs is hoping to attract Swifties to volunteer with the charity – by naming the litter in honour of the pop sensation. 

Girl pups Betty, August, Inez, Marjorie and Clara, and boys James, Tim, Peter, Archer, Red and London, are currently at home with guide dog mum Sandy, and grandmother Wispa, in Market Harborough, Leicestershire.

The 11 dogs – which matches the number of ‘Eras’ the pop sensation has had during her career – are being cared for by Guide Dogs volunteer Lyndsey Baines, but the litter will be leaving later this month.

The five-week-old Labrador-golden retrievers will soon be on their way to ‘puppy raisers’, who will look after them for the first year of their life.

The charity is looking for volunteers to help raise young pups like them all over the UK.

Haley Andrews, head of puppy raising for Guide Dogs said: “While the European leg of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour will end in London next week, more guide dog puppy journeys will begin again.

“If you have now a blank space in your life for a gorgeous puppy, speak now. Swifties are known for being devoted, and these are the sort of people we need to volunteer.

“You don’t have to look after a pup for evermore, just for that vital first year so they can go on to become a life-changing guide dog for someone with sight loss.”
