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/.
Take a look and see if you can open your heart and home to a new four-legged friend!
5. Elsa (Akita)
Elsa is a bright, energetic and super friendly girl who still behaves very much like a puppy a lot of the time. She absolutely loves spending time with her human friends and will often forget her manners and jump up for attention. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
6. Pearl (Crossbreed)
Pearl can live with children 13-years+ and she could potentially live with another dog, cat or small animal. Pearl is a stunning, intelligent, lively and boisterous young girl who is in search of her perfect family who have the stamina to keep up with her. She is still a pup and therefore is a whirlwind of energy and excitement with very typical pup behaviours, meaning she can still be silly and jumps up and gets mouthy resulting in nips. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
7. Asher
Asher is a lovely little lady who is still finding her confidence at the shelter. She currently spends a lot of time hiding in her bed at the back of her pen where she feels safe and secure; however, once given a few minutes to realise you’re her friend, she will pop out to say hello and loves having a stroke. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
8. Rodney and Rory (Bichon Frise/Maltese cross)
Rodney and Rory could live with children aged 10+. They would like to be the only dogs in the home. They could potentially live with cats or other small animals, although we have no history of their behaviour around such animals. Rodney & Rory are a sweet, bonded pair of males looking for their forever home together. There is no background history on the boys, but they have been a lovely little duo whilst at the shelter. | Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter
