Bio:

Ness is a stunning female Cairn Terrier model and accomplished animal actor, known for her affectionate nature and strong desire to please. A true example of her breed, Ness is intelligent, lively, and endlessly cheerful, rarely seen without her tail wagging. Her bright expression and confident presence make her a natural in front of the camera, while her adaptable temperament ensures she thrives in professional environments.

Well socialised and comfortable in a variety of settings, Ness works seamlessly alongside actors, models, and crew members on set. She is confident around people of all ages, including children, and remains calm and focused during busy filming schedules. Her friendly and cooperative attitude makes her a reliable choice for television, film, advertising campaigns, and commercial shoots.

At home, Ness shares her space harmoniously with a cat and another Cairn Terrier, Ben Nevis. Her positive relationship with both demonstrates her balanced temperament and excellent social skills.

Her expressive face, compact build, and classic terrier charm lend themselves beautifully to lifestyle campaigns, family-focused productions, and character-driven roles.

Experience:

Ness appeared in a theatre production pantomime this year. She played the role of ‘Belle’s Best Friend’ in ‘Beauty and the Beast’ staged by Polka Dot Pantomimes. This role involved Ness taking part in some of the lead work, with different actors handling her, performing a magic trick and ‘dancing’ during a duet with Belle. She had to know her cues and timings when on/off stage, meaning she will be good at this in future projects. The performance featured a live band, smoke, sound and lighting effects, which Ness was comfortable with.

In addition, Ness can be seen as a star on the West End sensational theatre production, ‘Identical‘. As well as acting roles, Ness also has pet modelling experience, having worked for supermarket giant Aldi UK as part of their pet special buys.

Most recently, Ness has starred in a campaign for Pets at Home‘s Vet for Pets, along with a campaign for Willowbank Holiday Park, alongside her owner, Denise.
