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.
21. Maeve, the 'big beautiful' Central Asian Shepherd Dog
"This big beautiful girl is Maeve! A rare breed to Thornberry, Maeve is a large girl (over 60kg) so a strong and knowledgeable owner is essential for her. Incredibly loyal she builds strong bonds to her carers, she is non reactive (unless a dog barks at her) and generally walks quite nicely! CAS are known for their protective natures, so a secure garden, quiet home and limited visitors is essential. Maeve has spent over a year in a local kennels before coming here for rehoming, so will need time to adapt into a home environment. She is clean in her kennel and knows a few tricks too!" - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/maeve/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
22. Ralph the Cockerpoo who needs someone up to the challenge
"Ralph has a bite history, please read carefully. Ralph has been in a large number of homes in his life, however he has a complex behaviour history of resource guarding which has proven difficult to manage in a home environment. Ralph must have a room, seperate area or kennel that he can rest in that is not a communal space. Someone with experience of rehabilitation or pet professional is desirable. Ralph is very obedient and good with other dogs. He is crate trained and travels well in the car. We will not consider homes without a suitable set up for him – it must be an adult only environment." - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/ralph/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
23. Luna the Lurcher, who's been in the wars
"Lovely Luna! Had arrived with a horrifying degloving injury (do not google with a weak stomach!) Despite this Luna has got the most amazing temperament, and has been extremely tolerant of veterinary care and handling. We would love to find Luna a foster home where her medical care will be completely financially covered – this would involve bandage changes every 2 days. Sadly Luna may still lose her leg, however we’d like to give her every chance to recover. She is child friendly, and dog friendly (although given her injury it would be preferred she is the only dog or separated)" - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/16529/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
24. Ken, the 'boisterous' Labrador Cross Dogue De Bordeaux
"Say hello to Ken, a fun and boisterous boy bursting with personality. Ken has been in several homes in his short life, but despite this he is very loving and trusting. Common with Bordeaux he is extremely loyal but can be initially a little wary. He is good with other dogs but best to be the only dog to manage his training. He is best suited to live in an adult only / older teen environment." - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/max/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
