Pet lovers needed to help rescue the world’s oldest lost sea dog. She is the only female crew member on the Mary Rose.
She may have been the carpenter’s pet as she was found near doorway of
his cabin. Of course she would also have had to earn her keep, probably
as the Ship’s rat-catcher.
Hatch Facts
Age 18months- 2 years oldThe almost complete skeleton of a small dog was recovered near the doorway of the carpenter's cabin. This had a sliding door; perhaps she was trapped here as the Mary Rose heeled over and sank in 1545.
Pedigree – None she is a mongrel.The Mary Rose 500 Appeal is on a mission to build Hatch’s final home, the ambitious new Mary Rose Museum project. Funding is needed now to help secure both the future of Hatch and the Mary Rose.
Please support us by giving £2, £5 or £10 whatever is possible to help build her kennel in the new Mary Rose Museum.
Many thanks
