Helping Yorkshire Poundies is an animal rescue charity based in the Rotherham area. They work with other shelters to rescue dogs that are on death row and to find them new loving homes.
Many of these dogs have come from unknown backgrounds. But what animal carers at the charity do know about some of these pups is based on their anxieties and scars on their bodies. Some of these dogs will require a lot of patience and training, but most of all love - something many of them have not felt.
There are some dogs that would love to live with children, other dogs, and even other cats. While some others would prefer to be the only pet in the home to have all the attention on them.
If you fall in love with any of the dogs below, please visit https://helpingyorkshirepoundies.co.uk/ to find out how you can adopt them, and also check out the full list of dogs as they have not all been listed.
9. Amazing Amy
Amy has just turned three. She is the sweetest French bulldog and is friendly with everyone. She could live with children aged eight and over, but wants to be the only pet in the home to avoid sharing her treats. She walks well on lead and loves her walks but has to take it easy, especially in the heat. She wants a family who will adore her and treat her like a princess. | Helping Yorkshire Poundies
10. Terrific Tasha
Tasha is aged around eight years and is very fit and well. She is super friendly, and loves her walks and toys. She is housetrained and sleeps downstairs overnight, but would prefer a home where she isn’t left alone long until she settles. She walks well on lead but can be unpredictable with dogs. She will need to be the only pet in the home. She can live with children aged 10+. | Helping Yorkshire Poundies
11. Radiant Rosie and jolly Jim
Rosie, aged nine, and Jim, aged 13, arrived in heartbreaking conditions, but are now ready for a loving home. They love each other’s company and curl up together for naps. Rosie can be grumpy with other dogs but could live with a confident cat. They will need lots of company, but can be left for a few hours once settled. Having been through so much neglect, these two special souls deserve the world. | Helping Yorkshire Poundies
12. Cheeky Chico
Chico is a handsome boy, aged around five. He has sadly had his ears cropped in the past, and needs a quiet home. It takes him some time to trust someone, but he loves a fuss when he’s ready. He needs a quiet home where he can snooze away and does not need an overly active home. He can be left alone for a few hours at a time. | Helping Yorkshire Poundies
