rescue dog

Lovely Lola is a two-year-old Staffie who is full of beans. She’s a friendly pooch who loves spending time with people but is sadly being overlooked by potential adopters. She’s looking for an adult-only home with an owner who will take her for lots of long walks and keep her physically and mentally stimulated. She’s at Chesterfield Animal Centre, in Derbyshire, and you can find out more by calling 01246 273358.

Charley - with a slightly different spelling - is a four-year-old rottweiler who was rescued from a puppy farm in February last year. She’s come a long way and is a cheeky, clever girl who loves human company and is looking for a home as the only pet. She’s a little wary around new people and dogs so would benefit from more socialisation. She’s at South Godstone Animal Centre, in Surrey. For more information about her please call 0300 123 0741.

Eight-year-old crossbreed Charlie was rescued from her previous home after being kept in unsuitable conditions. She’s a gentle giant who loves attention from her friends but can be a little wary around new people. She can be a little strong on the lead so would like some more training while out walking. She’s at Felledge Animal Centre, in County Durham, where she’s waiting for an adult-only home. More information is available by calling 0300 123 0708.

Staffie cross Bella is very loving but can be frightened of other dogs so is looking for a home with experienced owners who know how to work with a reactive dog. She’s very clever and well-behaved in the home but would like a home with no other pets. She loves human company the most and is a real lap-dog; enjoying strokes and lots of fuss. She’s very playful and loves to play fetch and go on long walks. For more about Bella please contact RSPCA Northamptonshire branch by calling 01604 881317.

English bull terrier Alfie is much more active and energetic than his older namesake. The eight-year-old is very sociable and loves going on walks and training. He’d like a new home with a garden to run in and would be happy living in a family with older children and another dog. He’s at Halifax, Huddersfield, Bradford & District Animal Centre, in West Yorkshire. To find out more about him call 01422 365 628.
