Dogs Trust has dozens of adorable dogs and puppies looking for homes in Liverpool, Knowsley, Sefton, Wirral and St Helens.

Based in Whiston, the Merseyside centre has more than 60 dogs in its kennels, who would love the chance to find a new family and a place to call home. A diverse selection of dog breeds are up for adoption, ranging from tiny Terriers to Siberian Huskies.

The charity is seeing more and more people giving up their pets as a result of the cost of living crisis. So, if you follow the ‘adopt not shop’ mantra and are hoping for a new canine companion, why not pop into Dogs Trust’s Merseyside branch and find a new friend.

Below are 21 of the centre’s residents, who would love to find a permanent home this autumn. More information about the adoption process is available via the Dogs Trust Merseyside website.
