More than 50 dogs and puppies are looking for permanent homes around Merseyside.
Whether you're looking to adopt a puppy or an older dog, there are a variety of breeds, types and ages up for adoption at Dogs Trust's Merseyside branch, located in Huyton.
From Labradors to Greyhounds, there are dozens of gorgeous dogs that have had troublesome lives so far and would love to meet their forever families.
Below are 19 of Dogs Trust Merseyside's newest additions, who are hoping to leave the kennels and start their new lives.
17. Wispa
Wispa is a Border Collie estimated to be between five and seven years old. She needs a home free of other pets and children. She is house trained but any time she spends alone will need to be built up gradually. She will also need regular grooming as this has been neglected in the past leading to matting. | Dogs Trust Merseyside Photo: Dogs Trust Merseyside
18. Bert
Bert is a Greyhound who will need to be the only pet at home. He has always lived outside but is getting the hang of learning to toilet outside. He can live with children of high school age. He doesn't like to be by himself at home so will need a family where ideally there can be someone with him all the time. | Dogs Trust Merseyside Photo: Dogs Trust Merseyside
19. Patch
Patch is a Boxer cross who will need to be the only pet in the home and will need somebody around for most of the day as he can become stressed and destructive if he is left for too long, although he is house trained. He is only young and will need few visitors. | Dogs Trust Merseyside Photo: Dogs Trust Merseyside Patch
