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.
5. Oliver
Oliver is a gorgeous five-year-old black Labrador. He does have some issues with dysplasia of the joints, but it doesn’t stop him from enjoying life. He does need to lose a bit of weight, but with regular exercise and a healthy diet, he will soon reach his target. He is a super-friendly lad and could live with a resident dog. Photo: AIN
6. Megan
Megan is an adorable retired Greyhound, aged seven years. She would need to be the only pet in the home, although she is fine walking alongside other dogs. Photo: AIN
