Four vandalised Snoopy sculptures have reappeared on The Dog's Trail after being repaired. The sculpture trail, which is organised by The Dog's Trust, was only launched on Friday, April 8, and the dog statues had barely been appreciated by the public when vandals set about spoiling the free fun.
There are 40 sculptures of the Peanuts character in total dotted around Cardiff, Caerphilly and Porthcawl - you can see the full list and where to find them, here. A statement released on Wednesday, April 13 by the Dog's Trust said that they had received 'phenomenal support' from the public following the damage and that the repaired Snoopys would be back out on the trail by the end of the Easter holidays.
The statement, posted on Dog's Trust social media, also said that two further Snoopy sculptures, Barkbour and Kick the Ball Snoopy, have been fenced off due to minor surface damage . It read: "Despite the sad news over the weekend about our damaged Snoopy sculptures, the support from the public has been phenomenal and we have loved seeing how much joy A Dog's Trail is bringing to the community."
