These five adorable pooches at Basildon's Dogs Trust rehoming centre are in need of loving new homes.
Queenie, a French Bulldog
Queenie is a four-year-old Frenchie who has been returned to Dogs Trust due to her not getting on with another dog in the home. She loves her food and treats which will work as a great tool to build a bond with her. She is looking for an adult-only home with few visitors and no other pets. Queenie also adores her walks, being out and about exploring and will make a great addition to her new family.
Iris, a Japanese Akita Inu cross
Iris is a very sweet and affectionate Akita cross who has lived in a home before and cannot wait to do so again. She has been around children in her previous home, and would be able to live with kids again if they were aged 6 and over. She would prefer to be the only animal in her home though. Iris really would suit a variety of homes, and the charity thinks she would be an absolutely amazing rescue dog.
Dill, a Lurcher
Young lurcher Dill came to the rehoming centre as a stray along with fellow lurcher Bay. He is a friendly boy who is looking for a home that can take him out to explore the world. He can live with children 11 or older who can give him space when he retreats. His favourite thing is being out zooming around burning off some energy. Most of all, Dill loves people so would really love to be apart of a family who are around most of the time.
Twinkle, a Shar Pei
Three-year-old Twinkle is a friendly girl who can live with dog-savvy children 11 years old and above, who will understand give her space whenever she is feeling nervous. She could also live with another dog pending a successful introduction at the centre. She's an independent and housetrained girl who can be left alone for up to four hours.
Myles, a crossbreed
Myles is a super handsome boy who, at seven years old, still has so much to offer a new family. He has been friendly to all he meets at the kennels, but his previous owners said he could struggle to be around new people in new environments, so a quieter home with few visitors would suit him best. He could live with the right dog but not cats, and would get along with older teenagers who would chill out with him.
