As we head into 2026, we’re looking back at some of our favourite moments from Oh My Dog! in 2025 - a year full of unforgettable stories, hilarious chats and dogs we still think about.

From Pete Wicks on For Dog's Sake, unconditional love and travelling to South Korea to save dogs from the meat trade, to Niall Harbison on how nearly dying led to saving thousands of street dogs in Thailand. We discover how Monica Dolan's Husky , Velma, helped heal childhood trauma, there's Bill Bailey's hilarious appearance at Oh My Dog Live at Goodwoof, and Martin Clunes reflects on a lifetime of dogs and becoming a Dogs Trust Ambassador.

Happy New Year! And make sure you stick around for the bonus clip - it's one of the funniest Oh My Dog! moments of the year.
