Kevin Horkin truly deserves the accolade awarded to him by the Stars of Coronation Street as "The Pet King". If all he was remembered for was teaching people to be responsible pet owners, Kevin Horkin would be overjoyed. Animals and dogs in particular have shaped Kevin's life since he was a young man taking his young Jack Russell terrier for walks in the hills above his then home in Rawtenstall. Kevin loves animals and dogs in particular.
