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!
5. Tinsel (Lurcher)
Tinsel is a lovely, super friendly young girl. She is a very bouncy and energetic young lady who appears to be lacking in some of the basic puppy training she should’ve had. She will need experienced owners who are able to teach her some more appropriate behaviours, including how to walk nicely on the lead and how to keep all four paws remaining on the floor rather than jumping up. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
6. Pawlina
Pawlina is a lovely girl who has spent some time in a foster home recently. Her foster carers have given her a glowing report and told staff what a pleasure she has been to care for. She is an affectionate lady who loves to be made a fuss of and will lick her humans to return the affection! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
7. Bella (Staffordshire Bull Terrier)
Bella is an absolute sweetheart and a delightful older gal. She adores being around her human friends and isn’t afraid to let you know when she wants some fuss and attention - happily using her voice to tell you she needs more cuddles! Though Bella has been pretty placid with dogs in care, choosing to ignore them most of the time, staff do know she was not a fan of dogs in her previous home so this may need to be considered by her new family. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
8. Mary (Shar Pei Cross)
Mary is a beautiful, intelligent and energetic girl! She is happy to say hello to anyone she meets and, despite finding the kennel environment quite difficult to deal with, has still remained such a good girl who is always pleased to see shelter staff and volunteers. She absolutely loves being made a fuss of and spending time with her human friends. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
