CBeebies’ brand-new series Dog Squad is here to bring a team of true superheroes to our home screens!

Following the lives of five superstar assistance dogs Kika, Diesel, Meagaidh, Sylvie and Tinks, the series will follow their adventures as they help their owners on important daily missions.

The very first adventure will feature the lovely guide dog Kika and her owner, author and disability activist Dr Amit Patel. RNIB Connect Radio's Paulina Kuchorew spoke with Dr Patel about his experience and Kika's newfound fame. 

Catch the first episode of Dog Squad on CBeebies Monday 7th of November at 4 PM or later through the BBC iPlayer.
