Barry is a gorgeous 3-month-old Anatolian Shepherd. He came to us as a stray, so we have no previous history on him, but in his foster home he is showing that he is a really nice natured, sweet boy. He loves people but can jump up and he will be a very big dog when fully grown, so any children in the home would need to be confident around big and bouncy dogs. Barry enjoys the company of other dogs, although he can be excitable and lacks manners so any other dogs in the home would need to be able to cope with his enthusiastic playstyle. Barry can be left on his own for a couple of hours once he is settled in. As he is a puppy, he is still learning some of his basic skills so a private and enclosed garden would help with this.placeholder image

Dogs Trust: 17 amazing dogs and puppies looking for a forever home in the North East

Here are the dogs hoping to find a forever home in the North and North East this week.

There are so many gorgeous dogs in search of their forever home this week across the North and North East.

Darlington, Cumbria and Leeds rehoming centres are hoping to find lovely homes for their dogs in order to give them the best possible lives.

Here are just 17 of the dogs searching for a loving family and forever home this week.

Pretty Polly is a young girl who is looking for a home with not too many visitors as she can become overwhelmed with too many new faces. Polly would like to be the only pooch in the home but her family will be encouraged to continue working on her socialising around other dogs as she can be unsure on how to behave around them. As Polly can be a worried girl when meeting new people she will be best suited to living with older teens who are aged 16 and over. Polly will need adopters to visit her a few times before going she heads off to her forever home.
