Eight furry friends in Bedfordshire are looking for a new forever family – could it be you?
Eaton Bray’s Appledown Rescue and Rehoming Kennels have taken in stray dogs since 1999. They can look after around 100 dogs of all ‘ages, breeds, shapes, and sizes’.
Amongst the list of current Appledown residents is Staffordshire Bull Terrier Alfie, Rona Harris the Beagle, Tom Good the Patterdale Terrier, and large crossbreed Otto. To find out more about the rehoming process, visit the Appledown Rescue website.
National Animal Welfare Trust (NAWT) was founded in 1971 as an independent charity. NAWT Bedfordshire helps cats, small animals, dogs, and even pigs! The rescue is currently looking after many dogs, including Spanish Mastiff Cross duo Dexter and Sacha, crossbreed April, and Gus the Greyhound.

5. April
Three year old April arrived from Cornwall and according to NAWT Bedfordshire, she is a 'very friendly girl' who is 'full of life and has lot of love to give'. April's perfect new owners would be able to match her excitable personality and will walk her in quiet locations due to her high prey drive. She adores squeaky toys and teddies and knows how to 'sit, paw and down'. Photo: NAWT Bedfordshire

Sacha (pictured) and her brother Dexter are both Spanish Mastiff x German Shepherds who love going on long walks and playing fetch. Sacha is around five years old. Photo: NAWT Bedfordshire
7. Dexter (with Sasha)
Dexter (pictured) and his sister Sacha would prefer to play fetch on a long-lead, or in an enclosed field as they are learning recall. They may be suitable to live with children. Dexter is also around five years old. Photo: NAWT Bedfordshire
8. Gus
Gus the three-year-old Greyhound is looking for a wonderful retirement home to call his own. This ex-racing pooch is not used to being in a home environment, but is expected to adjust quickly. The NAWT Bedfordshire team have described him as a 'happy, loving chap' who will need to be taught how to cope with being alone. Gus would prefer to live in a home with older teenagers (16+).
