Here's 18 dogs in Northamptonshire in need of a forever home

Chico is a 5 yr old Pug X JRT. An experienced home is essential. Chico loves to be out and about exploring so is looking for an active home. His new family will need to be able to undertake ongoing training. He cannot live with cats, and whilst he is good out walking with other dogs, a careful introduction to any dogs he would be sharing a confined area with is essential. It has been noticed that on occasions he can be reactive towards some strangers. He would be best suited to a quiet but active home without children.

Are you looking to open up your home and your heart for an animal in need?

Wellingborough animal charity, 'Animals In Need Northamptonshire' are never short of strays and rescue pets that are in need of loving new homes.

We have compiled a gallery of dogs that the charity have put out adoption appeals for.

Tikka is a super girl who is very friendly and actually hugs you when meeting you. She has a zest for life. She knows basic commands and loves running and playing ball. She is hugely loyal and listens well. When meeting other dogs she can be over-enthusiastic. She has epilepsy but this is controlled by lifelong medication.

Some of these dogs will require a lot of time and patience because they, unfortunately, did not have the best start in life but the right owner will be sure to allow them to trust again.

Could that owner be you?
