We have looked at Helping Yorkshire Poundies, Sheffield RSPCA, and Thornberry Animal Sanctuary in Rotherham to show you 21 of the dogs in their care, hoping for a home this winter.
Some of these pups would love to sprint around Sheffield's parks and the nearby Peak District with a whole family, while others prefer to stick to resting in a garden and cuddles from their owners - could you provide a home suited to either of these, or anywhere in between?
If you think your home could be the perfect fit for one of the following dogs, please visit the website of the relevant charity to find out how you can adopt or foster.
If you cannot foster or adopt any of the canines, but you would still like to help the cause, consider making a financial donation to aid their work, again by following each charities' website.
17. Bodhi, Helping Yorkshire Poundies
Bodhi is a very handsome medium-large boy, who is around 30kg. He arrived at the shelter in the most terrible shape, and absolutely petrified. It took time to build up Bodhi’s trust, but he has transformed into a loveable, playful goofball, full of kisses and cuddles. But, Bodhi does not trust strangers, and needs very slow and careful introductions to anyone new. When Bodhi loves you, he really loves you and you’re his for life. He is a very intelligent boy, fully housetrained, and he can be left alone for 5-6 hour periods at a time while he snuggles on the sofa. He needs medication for a skin allergy. He will need walks in quiet countryside where he can use his nose. Bodhi will be the most loyal, loving companion for his new owner. | Helping Yorkshire Poundies
