Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter has a number of animals that are looking for their forever home.
The shelter, which was established in 1896, helps animals that are unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned - as well as reuniting lost animals with their owners and finding loving new homes for those who are no longer wanted.
Here are 17 cute animals who are in need of a home - you can find out more at: https://www.dogandcatshelter.com/.
Take a look and see if you can open your heart and home to a new four-legged friend!

2. Pepsi (Bichon Frise Cross)
Pepsi is a lovely little lady who absolutely adores spending time with her humans! Her favourite thing is to be in the company of her people – showering them with plenty of love and affection! She loves getting out and about for her walks and having a good explore – she would like a family who are able to take her on lots of lovely adventures where she can have a good sniff! | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
3. Ruby (Lurcher)
Ruby is a young, sweet girl who was shy upon arrival but is coming out of her shell more and more each day. Though Ruby did arrive into care as a stray, staff have been given information from her previous owner which has helped enormously in understanding the environment she has been used to. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
4. Paddy (Lurcher)
Paddy was understandably a bit worried when he arrived at the shelter, not knowing what was going on in the world around him! But it didn’t take him long to realise that the team were his new friends and he quickly started to show off his adorable and more confident self. Paddy absolutely loves people and can be quite needy at times, so would like to go to a home where he won’t be left very often, especially in the early days whilst he settles in. | Newcastle Dog & Cat Shelter
