The Peterborough Telegraph is running regular spotlights on dogs that need new homes to support the work of animal charities in the Peterborough area.
The Peterborough and District Branch of the RSPCA do so much to rescue, nurture and subsequently rehome dogs in the area. They have continued to operate throughout lockdown and within a small radius are still permitted to rehome these animals.
Below are a selection of those that have been rescued and are in need of their forever home.
To find more details on each dog and to search for more rescue animals, visit www.rspca.org.uk/findapet/rehomeapet/process.
The RSPCA are funded entirely by public donations and receive no government money and therefore rely on the generosity of the public. Anyone wishing to support their work do so via www.rspca.org.uk/getinvolved/donate.

5. Twinks- Shar-Pei crossbreed (7 years)
Twinks is a sweet girl who came into us due to change of circumstances. Like many Shar-Pei's she is wary of people she doesn’t know however she soon comes round. Twinks does like her own space so would prefer to be the only dog in the home, but she has previously lived with cats so she could potentially live with them again in her new home. Twinks loves her walks and equally she is content in the home having access to a window where she is happy to sit looking out watching the world go by. She could live with calm children aged 8 and over that understand that Twinks will want her own space. Twinks will require a private and secure garden with 5ft+ fencing that she can spend time in. She can be left for short periods of time given lots mental stimulation. Can you offer this smashing girl her forever home? Photo: Midlands
