This newspaper has partnered with the Irchester-based Animals in Need charity to help find their rescue dogs loving homes.
Charity boss Annie Marriott said: "When people adopt a rescue, they save two dogs: the one they bring home and the one that gets the empty kennel. Their lives often depend on it. All our dogs are neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, parasite-treated, and come with four weeks of free insurance, a session with dog behaviourist Nathan Watson, and rescue support for their entire lives.
"If you're interested in welcoming one of our dogs into your home, please email [email protected]. We always conduct a home check and cannot rehome dogs to families with children under five years."
Please visit the Animals in Need website to check the full adoption guidelines and rules around rehoming a rescue dog.
Below are the latest dogs needing rehoming this week, with descriptions provided by Annie.
17. Dave
This handsome male crossbreed, affectionately nicknamed “Dopey Dave,” is truly one of a kind, both in appearance and personality. While he has a lack of spatial awareness – he’s been known to walk into doors – his endearing nature makes him incredibly loveable. Dave is a low-energy dog with a sweet, calm demeanour. He walks beautifully on the lead and is very affectionate. Playful and agile, Dave loves to give you a hug by wrapping his paws around your neck and resting his head gently on top of yours. This position seems to make him perfectly content. With his strikingly different-coloured eyes and floppy ears, he’s the very definition of charm. Dave is loving towards everyone and has not shown any reactivity towards other dogs, so he could potentially live with a laid-back dog after a careful introduction. Photo: AIN
