"Little Herbert is ready to find his forever home! Herbert was found as a stray, so we have no background about him. He is approx 2-3 yrs old and is a very small sized crossbreed who we think may be a JRT X Yorkshire Terrier. He’s a happy, friendly little chap who gets on with life! He would suit a home where he isn’t left for long – when he first arrived with his foster family, he would howl when left – this has improved, but he will still need plenty of company. Herbert really is a delight and deserves a happy ending full of love after being found as an unwanted stray."placeholder image

Adopt a Dog Sheffield: 11 lovely pups that need homes, including 12-week-old puppy found in box with siblings

There are 11 dogs at one South Yorkshire shelter currently in need of a home.

One of those hoping to be adopted from Helping Yorkshire Poundies is Maple the cane corso, a 12-week-old puppy.

She was found in a box with her three siblings, and thankfully rescued.

Herbert the terrier is a “happy, friendly chap” who is a fairly new face at the shelter.

Bodhi, a crossbreed, and Franklin, a grown-up cane corso, are two long-term residents at HYPS - could you be the one to finally give them a home?

If you think you could, or you want to find out more about any of the lovely pups listed below, find more information and contact HYPS on their website.

Below are 11 photos of all their adoptable dogs, along with a few lines about their personalities.
