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 17 cute animals who are in need of a home - you can find out more at: https://www.dogandcatshelter.com/.
Take a look and see if you can open your heart and home to a new four-legged friend!
5. Sugar (French Bulldog)
Sugar is a wonderful little lady who is great fun to spend time with! She is a super friendly and people-oriented girl, whose favourite thing is receiving as much attention as possible! She is full of beans and a playful young lass, she will need a family who can keep up with her and take her on lots of lovely adventures. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
6. Alan (Shih Tzu x Cairn Terrier)
Alan is a wonderful little lad who is a pleasure to spend time with. He is a friendly and confident chap who loves getting out and about on his walks and being in the company of his humans. He is not too fussed by toys or treats, but really enjoys exploring his surroundings and hopping on his human’s knee for a fuss! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
7. Diego (Crossbreed)
Diego is a lovely lad who sadly finds the world quite an overwhelming place! He is very worried by strangers and other dogs, once he is comfortable with you – he really relies on his humans for comfort and reassurance. As he is such a nervous boy, this does come out as reactivity when he is feeling overwhelmed and so he needs experienced and confident owners who can provide him with ongoing support and training to help him be able to manage his fears more appropriately. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
8. Daz (Staffordshire Bull Terrier)
Daz is a typical, daft Staffie! He is full of beans and will need an active family who can keep up with him. A home with experience of the breed would be beneficial. Daz has been very excitable when meeting other dogs whilst in our care and has shown some undesirable behaviours, he needs a responsible family who are committed to continuing his training and careful socialisation to help him to learn how to manage his big feelings and behave more appropriately. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
