5. Harrison!
Harrison is looking for a quiet, adult only home with few visitors as he can be a nervous boy around new people. He could share his home with a well matched, playful dog. He is house trained and could be left a full working day. Breed: German Shepherd Dog Cross. Age: 1 - 2 years & can live with other dogs. | Dogs Trust

6. Max
Max is a three-year-old Pointer Cross with bags of potential and love to give to his new family. He is a lively and silly boy eager to play and please. He would be suited to a calm, adult-only house in a quiet environment where he can enjoy long walks and get his nose down. A secure garden and a family committed to his training would be perfect for Max. Find out more about Max at www.dogstrust.org.uk/rehoming/dogs/pointer/1258118. Photo: Dogs Trust

7. Lucy
Meet Lucy, a lovable Frenchie who will win you over with her cuddles. Lucy is a sweet and playful girl who thrives in the company of people. She loves toys and enjoys engaging in fun, interactive playtime. She would be best suited to a home with older children (12+) and no other pets. While Lucy enjoys walks, these need to be in a quiet area, and her new owners will need to support her in getting accustomed to other dogs during outings. She can often be found lounging on someone's lap, making her the perfect companion for anyone working from home.

Betty is the perfect companion who can easily adapt to both active and laid-back lifestyles.
