ITV viewers of For the Love of Dogs had a change of heart on Alison Hammond after the third episode of the series aired last night.
Alison has endured a backlash from social media trolls after being announced as the replacement host for the show following Paul O’Grady‘s death.
Some detractors, among other spurious suggestions, have made out that not owning a dog herself should disqualify Alison from hosting the programme. She has previously dismissed this as a “flawed argument”.
But following Tuesday’s (April 30) show, Alison’s supporters are pushing back on those disparaging her.

One social media user declared how they felt Alison is thriving in her role – and would’ve impressed Paul.
“Alison Hammond is doing a great job on For the Love of Dogs,” they tweeted.
“She has a genuine sweetness with the dogs. Paul would be happy with her #ForTheLoveOfDogs.”
Someone else echoed: “I am absolutely adoring @AlisonHammond presenting this show. Her bond with the dogs is just amazing. Paul would be very proud of you #ForTheLoveOfDogs.”
Paul would be very proud of you.
And another person responded to someone ranting about how they won’t tune in while Alison is on by informing them: “”
