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 19 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!
1. Looking for a home
All these pets at Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter are searching for a home. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
2. Lad (Lurcher)
Lad is a lovely boy who has been a pleasure to spend time with during his stay at the shelter. He really enjoys getting out and about on his walks and having a good explore. He is also very food-motivated, so loves his treats, but this means he is quite a greedy boy and so staff suspect he may have the potential to steal food if given the opportunity. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
3. Mabel (Old Tyme Bulldog)
Mabel is a lovely, sweet girl who loves spending time with her human friends. She was a little nervous when she first arrived at the shelter, but soon settled in and quickly showed staff what a trusting girl she is. She has had many homes previously and experienced abuse. She hasn’t let her poor treatment affect her, however, and still remains such a loving girl – who is just desperate to be loved herself. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
4. Chase (Staffordshire Bull Terrier)
Chase is a brilliant boy who has been a pleasure to spend time with at the shelter. He is a lovely and energetic lad, who is great fun to be with! He is a typical bull-breed, who can be daft and excitable and enjoys ragging his toys and a good game of tug! He will need an active family who are able to provide him with plenty of mental and physical stimulation, to keep him happy and healthy in both body and mind. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
