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 21 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!

9. Andy (Akita)
Andy is beautiful gentleman, both inside and out. He is a typical Akita and can be aloof with strangers initially, but is a super friendly lad once he’s gotten to know you. Once Andy is comfortable with you, he quickly shows his playful side and loves to spend time with his human friends. He loves being made a fuss of and getting out and about for his walks and playtime. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

10. Walter
Walter is a lovely young chap who loves to explore his surrounding and find fun things to play with! Walter sadly came in to the shelter as a stray so staff know nothing about his previous life. However since being there, he has been a friendly young boy who will happily entertain himself with string and feather toys or equally enjoys human interaction. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

11. Milo (Patterdale Terrier)
Milo is a lovely little lad who is very people-oriented. He loves saying hello to his humans and making friends with everyone he meets! He’s a very energetic chap – he loves to be on the go and is an intelligent boy too, he needs an active family who not only can keep up with him physically, but who can also provide him with the mental stimulation he needs to keep him happy and healthy in both body and mind. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter

12. Cherry (Crossbreed)
Cherry is a beautiful, smart and active girl who was very nervous when she first arrived into care. Cherry is growing in confidence day by day and is showing what a brave and courageous girl she is, though remains anxious and shy at times. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
