Coronation Street star Daniel Brocklebank has whipped fans up into a bit a frenzy as he took to social media with a new snap of himself and a new friend. Fans of the actor, who plays Billy Mayhew in the ITV soap, will know he's an animal lover and his caring nature doesn't just stretch to the character he portrays on-screen.
Back in 2019, the soap star got a 'new man in his life' - an adorable Dachshund called Colin. Daniel adopted the then-four-month-old pup who was being cared for at Dogs Trust Manchester after being illegally smuggled into the UK. Colin was one of a litter of six puppies illegally imported into the UK from Hungary. Having travelled over 1,000 miles in horrendous conditions the litter was seized at the border by enforcement authorities before being looked after by the animal welfare charity.
Daniel wasted no time in taking him to the famous Corrie cobbles. Sharing a photo of Colin on the famous street, he told his followers on Twitter: "I have a new man in my life. Peeps, please may I introduce you to Colin. A huge thank you to Dogs Trust for all your help & guidance. Adopt & give them their forever home."
