Celeb Vicky Pattison has raised money for a Welsh dogs charity!

The Geordie Shore star appeared on the popular ITV game show Tipping Point and managed to raise an incredible £2,400 for the Cross Hands based charity.

The charity is reliant on public donations and specialises in helping ex breeding dogs.

Vicky’s Labrador Max was a rescue from the charity and so the charity has a special place in her heart.

Sylvia continued: “It was a wonderful thing, and we have a lot of dogs waiting for eye surgery and so we thought we’d use it on helping one of the dogs.”

Imp is currently based in the Cotswolds and is scheduled to have cataracts surgery next Tuesday.

Sharon Taubenheim who is Imp’s fosterer said: “She’s a black and tan Cocker Spaniel about 8-9 years old friendliest thing ever just delightful personality and I’m sure she’ll get her home when she’s given the all clear.”

The operation itself will cost £6,000 which is £3,000 per eye.

Many Tears Animal Rescue has been operating for 20 years and currently rehomes around over 2,000 dogs a year.
