The Mayhew’s Lacy met Stacey on the Paul O’Grady show in a bid to find the gentle giant a home.

Singer Stacey Solomon hit it off with Lacy on the ITV programme which went out live on 5 May.

Laid back Lacy, who’s five-years-old, ended up at the rescue centre after being found abandoned on the streets of London. The dog, who’s an English mastiff boxer cross, weighs around 55 kg, or nine and a half stone, but is incredibly gentle and well behaved.

She can be rehomed with other dogs and children over 12. You can see more details and apply to adopt her.

Paul O’ Grady, who is passionate about animals and has five dogs of his own, said: “Lacy is calm and gentle and needs a home. All the dogs on the show may not be aesthetically pleasing but they’re all gorgeous in their own way.”

Stacey added: “If my children were over 12 she’d be coming back in the car with me now. She’s a lovely dog who’s been overlooked because of her size. “

Stacey’s partner, Jackass prankster Steve-O, last seen on Channel 5’s The Jump where the couple met, was also extremely taken with Lacy and smothered her with cuddles.

Steve-O said: “I love rescue dogs, I have two of my own. I really hope she finds a home. She’s such a great dog despite her size.”

Lacy is currently in foster care with Tony Kay who said: “She’s the best dog I’ve ever fostered. I would take her myself but I can’t commit right now.

“I really hope someone sees her on the Paul O’Grady show and gives her a second chance home which she really deserves.”

The award winning presenter is back on television with his lively and witty chat show which airs weekdays at 5 pm on ITV.
