There are so many puppies 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 forever home this January.

13. Zena (Staffordshire Bull Terrier Cross, one-two years)
Beautiful Zena has had quite an unsettled life so far, so she is looking for patient owners that are happy to do some training with her to help her settle in. Owners that are confident with large, bouncy breeds would be beneficial as she can be very strong on the lead at times (especially when wanting to chase prey animals). If you have the strength and Zena sized space on your sofa, however, this friendly girl will give you plenty in terms of interaction and affection - she really has got bags of potential. | DT Photo: Dogs Trust Leeds
