Here are seven 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."
Below are the dogs that need rehoming this week, with descriptions written by Annie.
5. Rocco
Rocco is a three-year-old French Bulldog. He cannot live with children or other animals. He’s a very clever lad and knows many commands. He is house trained but needs a firm but fare home because he will certainly test his boundaries. Photo: AIN
6. Marty
Marty is a super happy, playful four year old Staffie cross lad. He has had a rough start in life and is nervous of new people but once he trusts you he is your best friend. He is dog friendly but needs an active home that will not leave him for long hours. A home with older children would be best because he is so boisterous. Photo: AIN
7. Sydney
Sydney is a stunning two year old Lurcher lady who needs an active secure home where she will not he left alone for long hours. She would be fine with older sensible children. A home without cats and small furries would suit her better. Although she can be reactive to other dogs while on lead, she is ok with proper introductions. Photo: AIN
