Meet Posh a very sweet, small, black greyhound whom we have been asked to rehome due to her current owner's ill-health. She is very laid back and great with people, children and all other dogs but will chase cats. Posh is very good off the lead and will come back when called, which is brilliant for a greyhound. What a clever little girl she is! Posh is used to being left for 2/3 hours and has lived in a home for 12 months so is housetrained and would just love someone to offer her their sofa to stretch out on. If you think that you could offer Posh a caring new home and would like to visit her please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Joyce or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

Max is a big cuddly, friendly, German Shepherd cross Collie boy who is urgently in need of a new home. He is is approximately 4 years old and we have been asked to find him a home due to a change in his families' circumstances. His current carer is away a lot so he spends most of his days alone and lonely and he gets anxious being on his own. As you can see from his photos he is a vary handsome guy. He adores people and will bond very strongly with his new family. His new home will ideally be an active one as Max is an energetic dog who loves going for hikes and long walks. Max is keen to please and would benefit from some extra training, but all in all he is a really nice young dog. He has been used to having his humans around most of the time so he is looking for a family where at least one member is at home during the day. He will only be rehomed to families with older children solely due to his boisterous nature and larger than average size. Can anyone look at his face and not fall in love with Max? If you think that you could offer Max a caring new home and would like to visit him please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Joyce or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

Tyler

Bull Terrier Cross. We have been asked to find Tyler a loving new
home through no fault of his own but due to his family's change of
circumstances. He is good with other dogs and sensible children
of 7 years and up. He walks well on the lead, has good recall
when off the lead and loves playing with a ball. Tyler will make a wonderful all round family dog. If you think that you could offer Tyler a caring new home and would like to visit him please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Joyce or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

Meet lovely Lyra, a cross breed who will be two in May. She is a lovely medium-large sized dog who loves to walk and play. She loves her food and even though she needs a bit more training she could be easily trained thanks to her adoration of all things biscuit, or anything edible for that matter! Lyra is an intelligent dog and can open doors herself. She walks well on the lead, but is too strong for her current owner and is being rehomed through no fault of her own. She comes back if let off the lead to a whistle and loves a bit of rough and tumble. She loves dogs and other animals but isn't good with children and will not be rehomed to a family with children under 12 because of her young and boisterous nature. However, she would be fine with teenagers. She is spayed, fully vaccinated and microchipped. If you think that you could offer Lyra a caring new home and would like to visit her please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Gail or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

Amy and Abbie (below) are litter sisters who are now ready to go their separate ways and would like to find new families to call their own. Their trainer wanted to get rid of them as they didn't come up to scratch. Luckily for the sisters he did contact a greyhound rescue before having them put to sleep (the usual outcome for many greyhounds who don't make the grade). Because the greyhound rescue is struggling to find enough space for all the greys surplus to the requirements of the racing industry they have come into branch care until they find loving new homes. They are gentle, small greyhounds with lovely black and white coats. Both walk well on the lead and are fine with all other dogs they meet. Unfortunately black dogs are often difficult for rescues to rehome for some unknown reason, but anyone meeting Amy or Abbie will fall in love with their gentle natures and satin like coats. They have never lived in a house before but, with a little help from their favourite new people, scary stuff like washing machines and vacuum cleaners will soon be ignored and once they've mastered stairs they will have to be persuaded to let you have your bed to yourself. Please note: Amy and Abbie both come with a warning, that once they've made a greyhound shaped place in your heart no other dog will do. If you think that you could offer Amy or Abbie a caring new home and would like to visit one of them, please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Joyce or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

very lively dog who could easily knock a younger child over. |

Jack is a 4 year old young man who is looking for that special family to call his own. He is a small Jack Russell Terrier cross and although he is a little nervous when meeting something new he quickly comes around. He loves to play with his tennis ball and go on long walks. Jack says: "After my walk and play I like a bit of a fuss and then to settle down for a nap. People say I walk well on my lead, I know basic commands and am clean around the house. But, I will not be rehomed to a family with small children due to me being nervous round strange new things." If you think that you could offer Jack a caring new home and would like to visit him please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Gail or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

Daisy is quite a shy 2 year old girl who is looking for that special family to call her own. She is on the small side of medium-sized cross breed dog who is very timid when she first meets new people but with patience, extra training and socialisation should soon gain the confidence she needs. Daisy is an active young dog who is looking for that special person who would like to make a difference to her life, and has the time and patience to bring out the best in her. If you would like to meet the owner of those beautiful, expressive eyes with a view to adoption please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Joyce or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

Lucia is a happy, fun, sweet and, of course friendly, 9 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier who is ready to spend the rest of her life with her new family. Lucia has nothing but love and friendliness to spread around to everyone she meets! Anyone would love her right away because Lucia loves everybody she meets and we know she'll love you too! Lucia is looking for a new home through no fault of her own, she is still lively and likes to play. Lucia currently lives with 2 other dogs with no problems, but she does prefer human company so would be happy as an only dog. She does not like loud bangs and will attempt to hide if fireworks or the like are going off, but with time a little patience and the help of the Sounds Therapy CD, Lucia should find next bonfire season a mite less frightening. She will only be rehomed with children over 8 years age as she is a very lively dog who could easily knock a younger child over. If you think that you could offer Lucia a caring new home and would like to visit her please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Gail or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk. |

Ricky is a husky cross , who is estimated to be about 18 months old. He needs an active family home as he loves being out on walks and playing games. He is good with people and other dogs but because of his very boisterous nature he will only be rehomed to families with children over 8 years of age, as he may knock younger ones over. If Ricky could speak he would say " I am still a pup, with plenty of energy to burn and I'm looking for someone who can help me get all the exercise I'll need. I can't wait to start training classes as I already know how to sit for treats and I really want to learn more!" If you think that you could offer Ricky a caring new home and would like to visit him please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Joyce or send her an email |

Mitch
is a waggy, playful, very energetic boy who is a 3 year old, neutered male cross breed. He
came to us to find a new home from RSPCA Bury and Oldham branch where
he was surrendered by his previous owners due to a change in their
circumstances. He has lived with children of all ages but
because he is quite strong on the lead he is looking for a family with
older children. Mitch enjoys lots of running and hiking to
burn off all his energy and he loves to learn new things. If you
are ready to adopt an active young man and are interested in training,
then Mitch is the guy for you. But, all Mitch really needs is a caring family to call his own. If you think that you could offer Mitch a caring new home and would like to visit him please telephone 07050 264 531 (ansaphone), leaving a message with your contact details for Joyce or send her an email not forgetting to include a contact telephone number to office@rspca-tameside-glossop.org.uk |
