Here are six adorable dogs who are looking for a forever home this week in Northamptonshire.
According to Google trends, many people have been searching for 'Animals in Need Northamptonshire' and 'puppies for sale' in the county.
So this newspaper has teamed up with the Irchester-based Animals in Need charity to help find forever homes for their rescue dogs.
Charity boss Annie Marriott said: "When people adopt a rescue they save two dogs, the dog they take home and the pound dog that gets that empty kennel. Their lives often depend upon it.
"All the dogs are neutered, fully vaccinated, ID chips, parasite treated and leave us with four weeks free insurance, a session with Nathan Watson dog behaviourist and rescue back up for their whole life.
"If you're interested in welcoming one of our dogs into your home, please email [email protected]
"We always do a home check and cannot rehome dogs to families with children under five years."

6. Duke
Annie said: "Duke is a handsome cross breed lad needing an active home and is willing to do some training. He is very high energy but does walk well on the lead & know basic commands." Photo: AIN
7. Parker
Annie said: "Parker is a huge very strong lad who loves snuggles. He came to us from a pound, he had been abandoned, left tied to a gate, emaciated! He is now in great shape, is house trained but gets bored easily and has a shoe fetish. An adult only home with no other animals would be perfect for this huge cuddly lad." Photo: AIN
