It’s been such gorgeous weather in South Yorkshire this spring - it’s shame these pups aren’t romping around a park somewhere soaking up the sun.
Thornberry Animal Sanctuary is always there giving the dogs with no home a safe and loving place to stay.
But it’s no substitute for a real forever family.
There are no less than three Akita x American Bulldog puppies who at just 10 weeks old are bursting with their own personalities.
Or there’s little Scully the chihuahua, who along with big beautiful staffy Gandalf was one of three dogs found tied to a tree and abandoned in a park.
Or there’s bouncy, bubbly lad Hachiko the Akita who unbelievably arrived as an unclaimed stray.
Each of the pups in our gallery below have a link to their webpage where you can adopt them.
In the meantime, enjoy these 20 gorgeous pups below.
1. Freddie, a 'bold and confident' the Akita x American Bulldog puppy
"Freddie is bold and confident; he is already showing such potential – he has heaps of energy so would suit an active / outdoorsy home to take him on lots of adventures. He would benefit from a family with larger breed experience that are committed to the training requirements that come with a puppy so young. Freddie could live with an adult neutered dog to help show him the rope of life in the big wide world." - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/freddie/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
2. Bob the Akita x American Bulldog puppy, a "the snuggle bug of the litter"
"Bob is another of our Akita x American Bulldog puppies on the hunt for his forever home! Bob’s new family will need to be experienced with similar / larger breeds and be committed to taking him to puppy training classes. Bob has a very sweet and calm nature – he is definitely the snuggle bug of the litter! He could live with an adult neutered dog pending the adopter is comfortable doing safe introductions. Bob can live with children." - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/bob/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
3. 'Legendary' Lennon the Akita x American Bulldog puppy
"Meet Legendary Lennon! Lennon is one of the last of the Akita x American Bulldog puppies that is still patiently waiting for his forever home. This young pup will need a new family experienced with larger breeds as he is set to be a big boy. Lennon will require all basic training from scratch so will benefit from a committed new family to helpy show him the ropes and adjust to the big wide world. He could comfortably live with an adult neutered dog and children." - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/20187/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
4. Buddy the Yorkshire Terrier, who loves 1-2-1 attention
"Buddy arrived to us last year when his human mum passed away. Sadly Buddy struggled to make bonds with other family members, and came to us for rehoming. Buddy did not cope in a multi-person household, so would much prefer a quiet home with 1-1 attention, or with 2 people equally committed to building a relationship with him. He enjoys walks!" - https://www.thornberryanimalsanctuary.org/animals/buddy/ | Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
