Halloween appeal to find homes for pups
8:00am Friday 2nd November 2012 in News
PUMPKIN: Labrador cross puppy Batty gets into the spirit of Halloween at Dogs Trust.
Trust in Wickhamford, near Evesham, and the canine residents of the home will be getting treats for tricks.
The staff at the rehoming centre have been getting into the spirit of Halloween this year and have conjured up spooky names for 16 new arrivals in a bid to find them new homes.
The puppies include a litter of 12-week-old labrador cross pups and another litter of four collie crosses. The cheeky pups including Batty, Pumpkin, Hocus and Pocus are now looking for homes separately where any children are over 12 years old and new owners are able to carry on their training and give them plenty of treats for tricks.
Dogs Trust supporter relations officer Shauna Stedman said: “Pumpkin and Batty are just two of the 100 rescue dogs we currently have looking for homes.
“These gorgeous little dogs haven’t had the best start in life, but are now hoping to find new owners who can give them the future they deserve.”
The rehoming centre is also hoping members of the public will donate toys or dog treats for the dogs who are waiting to find new homes.
Anyone interested in rehoming a dog should call Dogs Trust on 01386 830613.
