It’s a way of linking two animals in excellent condition to an event all Scots can be proud of.

Sandra Lawton, Rehoming Centre Manager at Dogs Trust Glasgow, said: “The nation is so proud of Murdoch and Jamieson and we thought what better way to commemorate their achievements than naming this delightful doggy duo in their honour.

“Like their sporting heroes, Gold and Silver enjoy lots of daily exercise and need plenty of training to ensure they remain in top condition. “

She added: “Hoping to find a medal-worthy home, they are looking for experienced owners who can help build up their confidence and take time to settle into their new surroundings. 
“We would love to see them find the perfect new owner and training partner who could give them a happy home together.”
