Helping Yorkshire Poundies, an animal charity based in Rotherham, is looking to rehome 20 dogs in their kennels right now.
The charity works around the clock to save dogs from death row, but in order for the team to help as many canines as possible, their kennels must be freed up, and that can only be done through selfless people adopting and fostering some of these loving souls.
Many of these dogs have come from difficult backgrounds, but that should not dictate their future. With patience and love, these four-legged friends will be able to live a normal life in the loving home they were destined to be in.
If any of these cuties below catch your eye, you can visit Helping Yorkshire Poundies’ website and register your interest by filling out the Pre-Adoption Questionnaire. You can also fill out a form on their website if you are interested in fostering one of the dogs available.
As a busy charity, Helping Yorkshire Poundies is always open to financial donations to help the runnings of their service. To find out how you can donate to the charity, please click here.
5. Meet Dolly
Dolly is an eight-year-old Staffy princess. She loves to walk and is good on a lead. She loves toys, belly rubs, and everyone she meets. She is fully housetrained, does not chew, and can walk with dogs but must be the only dog in the home. She is undergoing treatment for sore skin and an ear infection, and will need management to prevent further issues in future. Photo: Helping Yorkshire Poundies | Helping Yorkshire Poundies
6. Sweet as Toffee
Toffee is a crossbreed aged around 18-months. She loves nothing more than playing with her beloved balls. She is medium/large in size and has lots of energy for long walks and playtime. She hasn’t seen much of the world and needs lead training and slow introductions to other dogs. She will need a pet-free home with a garden, and owners who understand that rescue dogs need time and patience. She has lots of potential.
