Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter has a number of animals that are looking for their forever home.
The shelter, which was established in 1896, helps animals that are unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned - as well as reuniting lost animals with their owners and finding loving new homes for those who are no longer wanted.
Here are 15 cute animals who are in need of a home - you can find out more at: https://www.dogandcatshelter.com/.

Bagel is fun and friendly and has been great when meeting new people. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
3. Barry (Leonberger Cross)
Barry is a young lad who has been a delight to get to know. He is polite, sweet and very very friendly and still just a pup - a very big pup! Barry has shown the team he is very well mannered, especially for his age. He walks nicely on lead and greets everyone he meets with a waggy tail and a keenness for a cuddle! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
4. Peppa (Pocket Bully)
Peppa is a sweet little lassie who loves her food! Peppa has become a huge hit with the team at the shelter due to her delightful personality. She loves to spend time with her human friends and is always waiting for them with a waggy tail. Peppa has had mixed reactions to dogs – some seem to overwhelm her and she can become vocal, whilst others she show signs of wanting to play with. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
