In Latin, the name Rex means ‘king’ and we’re sure six-year-old Staffie Rex rules his kingdom too.

Nominated by Arruran. Vijay from Eltham, Rex is strong and smart but also a baby longing for strokes and cuddles.

He enjoys music – a good song to wake him up and a nice nighttime rhyme at bed time.

Mr Vijay said: “He sits on the round table at the back garden on day time, calmly watching everything around him. Without even moving, he alerts us by his style of barking, that a post man bringing letters or stranger knocking the front door.

“He is a king of our kingdom of home.”
