Bella enjoys being out and about for walks but she really enjoys using her snoot out on walks, to find all the best sniffs. She is a sweet girl and should make an amazing addition to most families. Bella does have mild hip dysplasia and luxating patella which can be very common from the breed, though she is not in any need of medications at the present, but she may in the future. If you have a space in your heart and your home for this lovely lady add her to your favourites list today.

Bailey is a four month old hound cross. He is a wonderful young pup who hasn't seen much of the world and can be nervous and shy with new people and new situations. Once he knows you, Bailey is a friend for life! He can live with children 8 years and above, and would love access to his own garden where he can run around and play. Bailey would love someone who is around most of the day to help him settle in, and patient and understanding owners who are willing to help him build up his confidence.

Freya is a 6 month old Belgian Mallinois cross. Freya is a super sweet girl who has come into our care from a background where she has not experienced much of normal everyday life. Freya is looking for a home with owners who have owned a working breed or shepherd type breed before and understand the level of exercise and mental stimulation she will require. She will need an active home and could live with children aged 14 years old and above. Freya would like to be the only pet in the home and will need an enclosed garden for her to play in and burn off some of her energy.

17 beautiful dogs looking for their forever home in the North East

Waldo is a 1yr old Border Collie who was found as a stray. While this means we don't know anything about his history, we have found him to be a fun dog with tons of training potential. He needs adopters who are training focussed and plan to keep him busy, like any young Collie should be! He would be fine with older kids and could potentially share with another good role model dog who could patiently show him the ropes. He'll need a secure garden with no dogs next door so he has somewhere to play off-lead and practice his housetraining. Most importantly, he will need someone around all the time as he struggles being left. It may take some time to slowly build up his confidence around being alone, but our training team will help and advise on the best way to do this.

13 incredible dogs looking for their forever home in the North East

We do believe Riley is going to be a rather large Lurcher, given his paw size! Riley is a playful puppy, who will require lots of stimulation to keep his young mind busy. He would love a secure garden to play and relax in, this would also be beneficial for his continued toilet training. Riley knows some basic commands and has recently started recall training in a secure field. Riley has proved to be a couch potato within the home and will settle down for affection and lounge about on the furniture in weird sighthound positions. Riley could live with confident children, who are used to larger breed dogs. Riley can also live with another playful dog.

Going Green: Very few Brits feel they’re prepared for climate change

Forest is a really smart lad and being very foody means he will be a training dream! He has a real zest for life, and you can’t help but smile when you’re with him. He isn’t used to being on his own so he’ll need someone around all the time initially to slowly introduce him to the idea of short periods alone. If you are looking for an active, smart and super fun dog who’s full of potential then you can’t go wrong with Fabulous Forest!

Nine stunning dogs looking for a forever home in the North East

Psalm and his siblings (2 female and 4 male) are gorgeous 9 week old lurcher puppies who are now on the search for their forever homes. These puppies are playful bundles of fun, who will need adopters who are at home most of the day to help settle them into their new homes. Adopters should be prepared that like any puppy, Psalm and his siblings will need lots of training, including housetraining, and should be willing to attend our fabulous Dog School classes to give them the best start possible. Psalm and his siblings could share their home with another sociable dog, provided that the existing dog is tolerant of bouncy, energetic puppies. These puppies could also live with children over the age of 5 years who have a sensible approach to dogs. Adopters should also have a secure garden space which is suitably enclosed to aid housetraining and provide room for exercise.

Little Pecan is only 3 months old and has already had quite a bit of an unsettled start, but our team are doing well teaching him the basic skills he'll need to settle in a new home. He'll be fine to live with older kids who are confident around bouncy dogs. Although he cannot share with cats or small furry pets, he's great with other dogs so having a good doggy role model would be fine for him.
