Labrador Cross Diesel pulls off memorable Scruffts win | Crufts 2024

A dog owner from Chesterfield held back tears of joy after her Labrador Cross Diesel, who taught himself how to detect epilepsy, was been crowned Scruffts Family Crossbreed Dog of the Year.
Claire Whitehead’s 13-year-old Airedale Terrier Labrador cross has saved her friend’s life more than once through detecting epileptic seizures.
The 48-year-old described her heroic canine as the perfect ‘Golden Oldie’ dog and insisted the spotlight is all Diesel’s after accepting the award on the Crufts stage. Subscribe to Crufts: bit.ly/CruftsSub

A lot more Airedale than Lab! Gorgeous old dog though, l hope the long day wasn’t too much for him.

Why do they keep calling him a Labrador cross when he looks like an Airedale? I can't see any of the Labrador in him.
