The clinic is unable to keep dogs for longer than 24 hours and will pass Zorro on to the dog warden if the owner does not contact them by lunchtime today.

The dog could be rehoused - and then would not be able to be found by the current owner - if he is not claimed from the dog warden.

He is wearing a brown leather collar with no tag.

A post by Thornberry Animal Sanctuary to help Zorro be reunited with his owner has been shared more than 1,200 times on Facebook.
