US EditionCamilla smitten with Battersea puppy as she opens dog-friendly garden
GREATER LONDON, ENGLAND, JUL 14 – The garden, co-designed by TV gardener Monty Don, offers a specially designed space for dogs to enjoy and supports Battersea's mission to improve animal wellbeing.
- On 14 July 2025, Queen Camilla officially inaugurated a new dog-friendly garden located at the animal sanctuary in south London supported by Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.
- The garden moved from the Chelsea Flower Show to Battersea after being redesigned to better fit dogs' needs, unlike the too-precious Chelsea version.
- Monty Don helped design the garden to be an engaging space where dogs could freely explore, play, and enjoy activities like running, jumping, rolling, and investigating, incorporating elements such as lawns, trees, shrubs, and a pond for pets to enjoy.
- During her visit, Queen Camilla interacted with several of the resident dogs at Battersea, including a tiny seven-week-old puppy named Dipsy, whom she gently tickled behind the ear. Noticing that the little Jack Russell had already been adopted, she joked that she would have liked to take him home.
- The event showed Camilla's ongoing commitment as Battersea patron and her affection for dogs, highlighting her connection to the sanctuary and the garden's positive evolution.
