Ill family dog who starred in EastEnders will die in weeks without treatment

Bullmastiff Staffordshire Terrier cross Cyrus, known to millions as Bronson from his time on EastEnders, is in desperate need of a life saving operation.

Cyrus hit our screens in 2017 when he arrived as the Taylors’ family dog. He was killed off in emotional scenes in 2021 when the family were advised to have him put down after he fell ill.

As well as sharing scenes with his on-screen family, he was also seen with the likes of Kush (Davood Ghadami) and Denise (Diane Parish).

In real life, Cyrus belongs to Caroline, who has launched an online fundraiser in the hopes of raising the £20,000 required for treatment that will be ‘100%’ effective in saving Cyrus’ life.

Just days ago it was discovered that the beloved pet had a brain tumour, with Caroline revealing to The Sun that it was now ‘a race against time’ to save the pup.

‘The thought of losing him is heartbreaking. It’s utterly gut-wrenching’, she said.

‘He has been suffering seizures but I was told they were nothing to worry about. I asked for a second opinion and we have been given this shocking diagnosis.’

Caroline’s existing funds have all been spent on testing and getting a diagnosis for her beloved pet.

‘It’s terrible. In Edinburgh is a gold standard radiotherapy which would shrink the tumour and uses more high-tech equipment than is available locally. Of course it doesn’t come cheap. But I’d just urge people for help.’

Caroline has called out to fans of the BBC soap to help save her dog, and £1000 has already been raised.

‘My dog was hugely popular on EastEnders so if people could help that would be great.

‘It’s such a sad situation. It’s heartbreaking. I just pray people can take him in their hearts.’
