Helping Yorkshire Poundies and Thornberry Animal Sanctuary work hard to look after these pups while they wait for their forever homes.
Not only that, they’ve taken some smashing photos of their bright eyed, lovable faces for their adoption pages.
The standout this week could be beautiful Matilda, an 11-year-old Staffy with the saddest picture ever. At her ripe old age she is looking for a retirement home where she can get “lots of company, snoozes and only short potters out.”
Or there’s Jasper, a “lovely” greyhound who was found roaming stray and is now only after a “caring home with a large and comfy sofa.”
Or there’s Pandora, a great big crossbreed with floppy ears who “loves to play, loves walks and loves life.”
You can find a link to their adoption pages in each of the pictures below. In the meantime, enjoy having a look at these 27 endearing pups.

2. Casper the 'gorgeous' husky
"This gorgeous boy needs a home that are able to support his specific needs. Casper is incredibly bright, energetic and will thrive in an active home that can keep him entertained, enriched and out of mischief. Sadly Casper feels very worried about sharing certain things and has already been in several homes. He would thrive in a home where he is out and about on adventures, journeys or even lending a helping hand at work as out and about he is simply wonderful – in the home he should have his own area, space (such as conservatory, spare room etc) or kennel that he can be separate from his owners. We know given the chance he will adapt and learn he doesn’t need to be so fearful and defensive. We are looking for a needle in a haystack!" - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/casper/ | Thornberry Animal Sacntuary

3. Matilda, an 11-year-old STaffy who is "such a sweetheart"
"Little 11 yr old Staffy Matilda is looking for her perfect retirement home. She is such a sweetheart who is a steady girl and is looking for a home where she’ll get lots of company, snoozes and only very short potters out and about to enjoy and take in all the smells. She is a bit wobbly on her legs, so isn’t one for a very active lifestyle. Matilda is housetrained, does not pull on the lead and is OK travelling (she likes to be in the front!). She arrived with us in terrible condition – she is doing so well now and her fur is growing back, she has been spayed and her large lump removed. She may be prone to ear infections and itchy skin in future, and would benefit from a grain free hypoallergenic diet, regular ear cleaning, supplements such as salmon oil for her skin and joint supplements (we can give advice on this) – all to keep her in good health and feeling happy and healthy. Matilda loves to be warm and cosy, and loves wearing a jumper to sleep in! She has been OK with other dogs as long as they are polite and not too boisterous with her, and we would consider placing her with a steady older male dog, and we would consider a trial with a confident cat. She really doesn’t like being ‘shut away’ from any goings on, and will sing the song of her Staffy people if she’s in a crate, or shut away – she’s just needs free run of the house and to be with her people (who can blame her!). This very special little old girl needs to find a 5* rescue home who know and love senior Staffys and the care they need where she will get all the TLC and love she so deserves." - https://helpingyorkshirepoundies.co.uk/female/matilda-4/ | Helping Yorkshire Poundies

4. Jasper, the "lovely large" greyhound who was found stray
"Meet Jasper, Our lovely, large greyhound who has recently come into our care as a stary, so unfortunately we do not have any previous history for him. What we do know is that he is a gentle, sweet-natured boy who is ready for a caring home with a large and comfy sofa that he can snuggle up on. He enjoys lots of human company and enjoys a walk before settling down in his bed. Due to limited history, he would be best suited to a home with children aged 12+ and could live with another sighthound pending a successful meet." - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/jasper/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
