Lucky and Suzie (Raystede Centre for Animal Welfare, East Sussex)
Lucky and Suzie are an adorable pair of Terriers who really need to be back enjoying home comforts rather than in kennels. They are playful, loving and enjoy lots of cuddles. They are fine with other dogs but are not used to living with children. All they want is to be back home and loved.

Tia (RSPCA South Godstone Animal Centre, Surrey)
Poor Tia had an isolated puppyhood and it’s amazing just how much she loves all people. She’s great with children but she’s boisterous so can only live with older ones, who don’t topple so easily! She needs to be taught to socialise with other dogs gradually. And she needs love!
Do you have some TLC for Toby? (Oldies Club, fostered Carmarthenshire)
Toby is a darling old boy who demands that his meals are provided on the dot! He loves to snooze in a comfortable armchair, or a deckchair outside on a sunny day. He only needs short walks. Could you offer Toby the TLC he deserves and expects?
Goosie (RSPCA South Godstone Animal Centre, Surrey)
Gorgeous Goosie is looking for someone to love and to keep her company most of the time. She’s good with other dogs and has lived with a cat before. Older children should be fine for her, as she loves playing and fuss!
Olly (Dogs Trust Newbury, Berkshire)
Cute little terrier Olly will never fail to make you smile with his quirky terrier ways. He loves being busy, with toys, going for walks and learning new things. He will have to get used to you, but once he does, he will make sure you are loved. This little chap is going to make someone very happy!
Pretty Springy Milly! (Oldies Club, fostered Lincolnshire)
Milly is a lively Springer who would love a home with children to play with. She’s good with dogs, and possibly cats too. Milly doesn’t like to be left on her own and will bark to let you know – Milly’s deaf though so she thinks she’s only whispering!
Zoli (via Hungarian Vizsla Welfare, Stirlingshire)
Zoli is gorgeous, charming and bright. He found a home recently but the family’s circumstances suddenly changed. It’s no fault of Zoli’s, and kennels will be so stressful for him. Do you have a very calm, adult home with Vizsla experience to offer Zoli?
Shrimp (Dunroamin K9 Rescue, fostered Yorkshire)
Super Shrimp has a sunny, sociable nature. He’d love to live with at least one other dog as he’s used to living with five! He enjoys home comforts and good company. He’ll be a wonderful addition to any family. 2/9/18 – Shrimp still needs a home!
Rico (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
Adorable Akita Rico is very loyal and his favourite thing is spending time with his humans. His perfect home would be adult only and pet-free so he can have all your love to himself. A garden to potter around and the occasional short walk would be perfect. 1/9/18 – Rico still needs a home!

Noodles (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Noodles, a Shar Pei, did find a new home but he so loved his new people that he panicked when they went out to work, and he had to return to Freshfields.

My wandering glances fell
Upon a little trembling flower,
A single sweet Bluebell…
