🐾 Pete Wicks Opens Up About His Love for Dogs Ahead of Emotional Documentary: “I Prefer Dogs to People” 🐾
Pete Wicks has revealed his heartfelt connection to dogs in a new interview ahead of the release of his upcoming documentary, Pete Wicks: For Dogs’ Sake. The former TOWIE and Strictly star, 36, admits that he “prefers dogs to people,” sharing how making this deeply emotional documentary about rescue dogs left him in tears. 😢
In a candid chat with The Radio Times, Pete opened up about the profound impact that dogs have had on his life, saying, “It might sound harsh, but it’s true – I prefer dogs to people. I don’t think you realise how much dogs will change things until you have one.” Pete, who owns two rescue French Bulldogs—Eric and Peggy, with Peggy having just one eye—has long been an advocate for rescue animals. He regularly shares his love for them on social media, offering fans a glimpse into his heartwarming relationship with the pair. 🐶💖
Pete’s love for rescue animals goes back to when he and his mum adopted a dog named Arnie when he was just 10 years old. This love story continued when he rescued Eric from the Dogs Trust in Basildon in 2016. Now, with the four-part documentary Pete Wicks: For Dogs’ Sake airing on January 7, Pete invites viewers to join him on a deeply personal journey into the world of rescue dogs and the impact they have on people’s lives. 🐾
Filming this series was an emotional rollercoaster for Pete, who admitted to shedding tears multiple times. “Filming the series was a privilege, but also emotionally difficult,” Pete said. “I cried several times. It’s heartbreaking when you witness a dog arrive after a bad start in life, you can see the sadness in their eyes.” This documentary is not just about rescue dogs; it’s about the profound bond between people and animals and how dogs can heal hearts. 🐕💔
While Pete’s love for dogs has always been a big part of his life, his personal journey continues to make headlines. Recently, Pete sparked romance rumors with Love Island star Maura Higgins after they were spotted together during the holiday season. The two were seen enjoying each other’s company as they rang in the festive season, fueling speculation about their growing relationship. 🥂
As Pete prepares for his Red Nose Day challenge, which involves cycling 630 miles across the UK, his dedication to both his personal mission and his love for dogs is clear. He’s not just working for a cause—he’s pouring his heart into the documentary and continuing to share his love for animals. 🌟
The documentary offers an intimate look into Pete’s life with his dogs and his personal mission to raise awareness for rescue animals. Pete Wicks: For Dogs’ Sake will undoubtedly tug at your heartstrings as it sheds light on the powerful bond between humans and their furry companions. Don’t miss it when it airs on January 7!
