Dilyn is a lovable family pet that has captured the hearts of many with her adorable face and playful personality.
Born in 2019, Dilyn is a Jack Russell Terrier who was adopted by the Johnson family in 2019. She quickly became a beloved member of the family.
Dilyn's arrival was a happy accident, as she was adopted on impulse by the then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who was smitten with her charms.
Boris Johnson's Dog
Boris Johnson's dog, Dilyn, is a Jack Russell-cross.
Dilyn was rescued by the charity Friends of Animals Wales, who fixed his misaligned jaw and saved his life.
Dilyn became a social media sensation in the 2019 general election, accompanying Boris Johnson to the polling station and participating in the #DogsAtPollingStations trend.
Dilyn has been a regular fixture in Boris Johnson's life, often joining him on runs and exercise in the grounds of Buckingham Palace.
Dilyn's antics have not gone unnoticed, with palace gardeners having to clean up after him, leaving "little gifts" in the palace grounds.
Despite the occasional mess, Dilyn has brought joy to the Prime Minister and his partner, Carrie Symonds, who have been vocal about their love for the rescue dog.
Carrie Symonds has tweeted about Dilyn, saying "There has never been a more loved dog than our Dilyn", which put rumors to rest about the dog's treatment.
Dilyn is a rescue dog who was saved by Friends of Animals Wales from a potential uncertain existence at the hands of a puppy dealer.
As a rescue dog, Dilyn has been toilet trained, but the Prime Minister's official spokesman was unable to confirm this fact.

Dilyn was delivered to Downing Street by representatives from Friends of Animals Wales.
The Prime Minister's official spokesman praised the charity, saying they were "fantastic".
