Thornberry Animal Sanctuary, based in North Anston, has many dogs of all ages and sizes ready to be given a new home. Some pets have spent many months at the shelter or between foster homes while waiting for a new owner to give them the comfortable and happy life they deserve.
Whether you live alone and are looking for a new companion to focus your attention on, or you’re part of a bustling family looking for a new cuddly friend, there is certainly a dog here that will suit your household.
All visits to Thornberry are by appointment only to reduce any stress on the animals in their day-to-day life. If you would like to find out any more information on the dogs you see below, simply fill out an enquiry form on the shelter’s website here.

2. 8-week-old puppies
Two gorgeous puppies, believed to be beagle cross bull breed are currently available for a new home. Puppies are no easy task as they will require housetraining while they enjoy chewing anything they can get their mouths on. Beagles are known to be a loving and happy breed with a particularly vocal element. The dogs must be enrolled into training classes as part of their adoption. The shelter is expecting high demand in these puppies and urges those interested to fill out an application form. Photo: Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
3. Patch, a Jack Russell Terrier
Seventeen-month-old Patch is described as having a "super fun nature" and a lot of curiosity. He loves to play with his toys and would benefit from a home where people can spend lots of time with him while he settles. Patch could live with other dogs who are a good match for his playfulness. The shelter believes he would be best suited to live with people aged 14 and over as he was very shy when he first arrived into their care. Photo: Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
4. Peanut, a Pekingese cross pug
Peanut may be a small dog, but he's described as "heaps of fun". This lively five-year-old enjoys exciting walks and plenty of fun and games. He is a friendly boy who will make a wonderful addition to a family home with children aged 10 and above. Due to his breed, Peanut will require regular grooming and he would benefit from a little refreshing on his dog training. Photo: Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
