Every day until Christmas Eve the Observer will feature one of the ’12 Dogs of Christmas’.
All of the pups are currently waiting for their forever home at the Dogs Trust in Kenilworth, and have been there for a long time or are struggling in kennels.
Six-year-old Pete is a typical Lurcher – cheeky, excitable and loves human company. Because of his energy levels, he is looking for an active home where he will have company for most of the day. Pete could live with another dog and with teenagers. He loves his treats and doesn’t mind helping himself so some training will need to be continued to help him with his manners.
The Dogs Trust branch in Kenilworth will care for some 100 dogs over the festive period.
Rehoming centre manager Emma Healey said: “Our 12 dogs of Christmas each would make a wonderful addition to a new home and we are appealing for anyone who would like to rehome one of these deserving dogs to please get in touch.
“We continue to see many unwanted and abandoned dogs coming through our doors over the Christmas period, simply because people haven’t taken into consideration the lifelong commitment of dog ownership.”
