We take a look at 12 dogs that are currently looking for their forever home at the RSPCA York, Harrogate and District branch…
9. Ringo
Ringo is a three-year-old Lurcher who is a really sweet boy and has found himself looking for a loving new home. When he first arrived at the centre he was in a terrible state, he was thin, infested with fleas and it was one of the worst cases the centre has seen for a very long time. Ringo has a great character and is keen to say hello to people he meets and he just loves all of the attention. Photo: RSPCA
10. Rocco
Rocco is a 21-month-old Lurcher and is an exceptionally friendly lad who came to the centre after his previous owner had to move and could not take him with them. Rocco is a very active and energetic dog who lives life to the max and his enthusiasm for life is inspirational. He can sometimes let his excitement get the better of him and he can forget his manners, however he is still young. Photo: RSPCA
11. Ruby
Ruby is a six-year-old Spaniel who is a very sweet girl who craves human attention constantly. She really is like your little shadow so if you are looking for a very loving but somewhat clingy (in a nice way) dog then Ruby is the dog for you. Ruby really is a lovely girl who will make a great addition to the family. Photo: RSPCA
12. Rigby
Rigby is a five-month-old Patterdale Terrier cross who is a sweet natured boy with a permanent smile on his face. Rigby will make the most fantastic addition to the family. He is friendly, loving, affectionate and cheeky who is looking forward to going on lots of exciting walks and adventures with his new family. Photo: RSPCA
