"Dinky Daisy is a petite little staffy ! it’s hard to believe her age, as she’s still very sprightly and enjoys a walk. She is gentle and nice natured, and will make a lovely companion for her new owners. She is suited to a quieter paced home, but has been friendly towards all people and will welcome younger visitors when settled. She is small for a staffy, weighing around 15kg. She has been fine passing dogs but not particularly interactive."

These chunky dogs up for adoption at Thornberry Animal Sanctuary need walkies to help them lose a few pounds

More than a few of these pups are a bit hefty and need help losing a few pounds - won’t you take them for walkies?

There are 13 dogs at Thornberry Animal Sanctuary who need adopting, including Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Labradors and and a floppy eared Jack Russell Terrier.

The South Yorkshire animal charity says more than a few of these pups are in need of extra walkies and a few less treats to help them lose a few pounds - are you ready to get them out and about before the summer is out?

There’s Poppy the Labrador x Collie, who at 11 years young still needs to lose some puppy fat. A few extra laps around the park at her new home should do the trick.

There’s also Cleo the “big, friendly” Labrador who has “spent a long time without walks” - her new owner must be ready to keep her on her diet, no matter how much she begs for extra.

Take a look at these 13 dogs below, where you can find links to their adoption pages.
