"Experienced foster / forever home needed for sensitive Tilly. Tilly arrived into our care as a young girl who had lived a very sheltered and sad life – she was adopted by a family who have tried to build her confidence but Tilly has struggled and come back to us at Thornberry. We would love to find her a quiet, loving, sighthound savvy, experienced home to decompress, build trust and enjoy life again. If you think that could be you please contact us. She is not comfortable with other dogs directly so it must be pet free."

16 fabulous dogs in need of a home at Thornberry Animal Sanctuary including beagles, bichons and Patterdales

This week there’s a lively terrier duo, a sparkly Maltese x Bichon, and a Norfolk Terrier in need of a retirement home

These fantastic pups are waiting patiently in South Yorkshire for someone to scoop them up, and this week they include some of the UK’s best loved breeds.

How about Lokei and Toby, a pair of terriers with a very special bond - Lokei is almost completely blind, but Toby is glued to his side and looks after him every day!

Maybe you can help them get out and enjoy the world together?

Or how about Freddie, a Norfolk Terrier who needs a retirement home of his own. He’s a very affectionate boy and loves being the centre of attention even in his golden years. Can you offer him a slower pace of life?

Or there’s Jerry the beagle - a “very greedy” boy on a diet who cannot be left alone in the kitchen. But he is a sweet and affectionate boy with plenty of Beagle character!

Each of the pictures below comes with a link to their adoption page at Thornberry Animal Sanctuary - could you offer any of them a home?

In the meantime, enjoy these 16 marvellous pups looking for a forever home.
